I wonder if the entire story of “a plane of Israeli refugees fleeing Tel Aviv” for Dagestan makes any sense at all. Assuming there even were Israeli refugees why fly to an isolated region within Russia instead of flying to Western Europe or North America?

One possibility is that they were dual Russian nationals who planned to transit from that airport to Moscow or wherever else in Russia. Also, Russia is super friendly for Jews and they're likely aware that it would be one of the world's most welcoming places for them, especially compared to what they view -- rightly or wrongly -- as rampant anti-Semitism in the West.
