The fall of the Airbus A321 of the Russian airline Metrojet in the Sinai region of Egypt, which killed 224 people, raised the fear of terrorism in the region and scared away tourists.
The most affected region was the resort of Sharm el-Sheikh, where the plane took off bound for St. Petersburg. Dependent on tourism revenue, Egypt still does the accounts of the damage caused by the tragedy.
More than 11,000 Russian tourists left Egypt, and British were called to return to his country after the Islamic State take responsibility for the alleged attack.
The head of the investigation into the accident said he considers all scenarios and also analyzes the black box. The hypothesis of an attack becomes stronger.
About 70,000 Russians are still in Egypt, following the suspension of flights by order of the government.
It was not disclosed the exact number of Britons who remain in Egypt, but the security officer of the United Kingdom said it could take up to ten days to repatriate all the tourists who stay in the country.
Clue attack
Officials report that the black box shows the sound of an explosion before the end of the recording, such evidence would have led the Russian government to stop the flights through the region, fearing that the EI attack in retaliation for his action in Syria.
