The Telegraph reported Sunday that data from the final moments before EgyptAir flight MS804 crashed into the Mediterranean suggest an “internal explosion” tore through the right side of the aircraft.
On Tuesday an Egyptian forensics expert told reporters today a preliminary examination of human remains retrieved from the site of the EgyptAir crash points to an explosion on board.
Euronews reported:
A forensic official had earlier reported that a preliminary examination of the few human remains recovered from the crash site appeared to suggest a blast took place. Although he added that investigators have not found any trace of explosives pointing to a bomb.
“The size of the remains points towards an explosion, the biggest part was the size of a palm. Some of the remains started arriving on Sunday in about 23 bags,” the anonymous official had earlier said.
Egyptian government officials deny the claim.
Tourism is a major industry in Egypt.
