An EgyptAir flight carrying 66 people crashed while en route from Paris to Cairo on Thursday, and a top Egyptian official said it was more likely the jet was downed by a terror attack than a technical malfunction, NBC News reported. According to an EgyptAir Facebook post, debris from the plane has been found in the Mediterranean Sea near the Greek island of Karpathos.

They’ll probably find a prayer mat in the tank debris.
