Russia says plane in Sinai brought down by bomb – Al Jazeera

Editor November 17, 2015

The Russian intelligence service says that a Metrojet airliner that went down over Egypt’s Sinai peninsula in October was brought down by a bomb.

The Russian Security Service (FSB) said on Tuesday that traces of explosives were found among the debris, after weeks of speculation about what had caused the crash.

The state-owned Sputnik News website quoted the FSB’s chief Alexander Bortnikov as saying the plane had “definitely” been downed intentionally.

“We can definitely say this was a terrorist attack,” Bortnikov is reportedto have said, adding that 1kg of a TNT equivalent had been used to bring down the Airbus A321 traveling for Sharm el-Sheikh to St Petersburg in Russia.(Al Jazeera)
