"Unknown group claims 'attack' on Egyptian flight"
Posted Mon, 05 Jan 2004
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "A man claiming to represent an Islamist group in Yemen said on Monday the Egyptian charter plane that crashed at the weekend was brought down in an "attack" by his group, in an anonymous telephone call to AFP.
It was not immediately possible to verify the authenticity of the claim by the caller who spoke Arabic with an Egyptian accent.
The man, who said he was an Egyptian calling from Cairo, said he represented a group called Ansar el-Haq, the Apostles of Truth, which he said carried out an attack that brought down the plane.
Ansar el-Haq is based in Yemen, he said, although nothing is known of the group."
