The Greek defence minister has said that Egyptian authorities say they have spotted a body part, 2 seats and suitcases in search for EgyptAir plane.
“A few hours earlier we were informed (by Egyptian authorities) that a body part, two seats and one or more items of luggage where found in the search area” off the coast of Alexandria, Panos Kammenos told a news conference.
Egypt’s military said its search teams found wreckage on Friday from the EgyptAir plane that crashed in the Mediterranean with 66 people on board.
“Egyptian aircraft and navy vessels have found personal belongings of passengers and parts of the wreckage 290 km north of Alexandria,” its spokesperson said on his Facebook page.
The airline has said the search was no longer a rescue operation, but a recovery.
