Egypt sends submersible in search for EgyptAir jet’s black boxes
Egypt has deployed a submersible to help find the wreckage of EgyptAir Flight 804 in the deep Mediterranean waters where it crashed, president Abdel Fattah el-Sisi said Sunday, as he warned that it might take a “long time” before the cause of the crash was determined. An international flotilla of search ships, aided by surveillance planes, was scouring a section of sea 180 miles north of the port city of Alexandria, and retrieved some wreckage, belongings and human remains over the weekend. But the search crews have yet to find the main body of the plane and its cockpit data and voice recorders. Although Egyptian officials initially pointed to terrorism as the most likely cause of the crash, Sisi said Sunday that all possibilities were being considered. <br/>
