Russia has ordered the suspension of all flights to Egypt following indications that the crash near Sharm el-Sheikh was caused by a bomb.
President Vladimir Putin made the announcement after UK investigators said they believed a bomb was put in the plane's hold prior to take-off, killing all 224 people on board.
The UK has suspended flights to Sharm el-Sheikh and is bringing Britons home.

Whoops, there goes the Egyptian tourism industry.
Rear door close to the pressure bulkhead. BOOM, tail falls off, plane crashes. A baseball size plastik with timer or baro trigger. The whole thing the size of a womens small purse.
My wife’s purse could bring down an aircraft carrie then
Hey, if it’s bad for Egypt, it must be a good thing.
Any fool that goes to anywhere in the mid east at this point deserves what they get.
When Sadat was assassinated back in the late ‘70s, that was such an inside job, I think his own guards did it. This seems a lot the same way.
Assuming it was a bomb, believe it or not, some Russian defenders keep on saying we don’t know yet, maybe officially we don’t. One report said there was a possibility of an explosion in an engine as well.
Let’s just say, it sure looks like an onboard bomb.
Too Funny ! ! !
I thought the same thing and then read your post ! ! !

How in the hell do you how big my wife’s purse is ?
Maybe people will wise up and stop taking tours to that God-forsaken hole in the desert.
It should have been gone long ago, especially after terrorists shot and killed dozens of Germans and Brits, mostly women and children, at Giza.
Egypt is and will always be the armpit of the desert.
People I know who toured there said they were sick to their stomachs most days at the sheer filth of the place.
It is not a civilized country.
“How in the hell do you how big my wife’s purse is ?”
Hahahaha I wish I could think on my feet that fast.
I am an acquired taste thanks you have a freepin great day
