Possible wreckage from EgyptAir crash washes up in Israeli beach

Debris apparently from the EgyptAir MS804 crash was found on a beach north of Tel Aviv on Thursday, according to the office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.



The PM instructed Israeli authorities to hand over the material to Egypt, possibly as early as Friday, for further analysis, the official said.

The Airbus A320 plunged into the eastern Mediterranean en route from Paris to Cairo on May 19. All 66 people on board were killed. The cause of the crash remains unknown.

Last week, debris from the jet was brought to Cairo airport, where investigators will try to reassemble part of the frame to help establish what might have caused the disaster.
