Debris from the crashed Russian jet in Egypt www.nydailynews.com |
The Russian jet that crashed in Egypt was "more likely than not" related to the Islamic State extremist group, ISIS. In this tragedy, 224 people were killed by a bomb placed on the plane by ISIS, investigators say. Security officials at the Sharm el-Sheikh airport have reported that the security is very poor, stating that drugs and weapons pass through security checks and scanning devices often do not work. Sharm el-Sheikh is a major tourist attraction in Egypt, so they are trying to protect their tourism industry by preventing foreign media. In Russia, over a thousand mourners gathered into St. Issac's Cathedral in St. Petersburg, lit candles, and stood and prayed for the victims as the cathedral bells rang 224 times.
