David Cameron has said the Russian jet crash over Egypt was “more likely than not” caused by a bomb, as he defended his decision to halt all flights between the UK and the resort of Sharm el-Sheikh. Speaking from Downing Street after a meeting of the UK government’s Cobra emergency committee, the prime minister said it could “take some time” to start flying UK tourists back from Sharm. More than 20,000 British citizens have been stranded in Egypt since the government took the decision on Wednesday to advise against all but essential air travel to the airport. Ireland has also suspended flights. http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/nov/05/egypt-plane-crash-likely-to-have-been-caused-by-bomb-david-cameron It has been determined by investigators that the crash of the Russian passenger jet was not caused by malfunction or pilot error and the Islamic State likely to have placed a bomb in the flight's cargo. The Islamic State has already claimed responsibility for the attack, which was done in opposition to Moscow’s military intervention in Syria. I think airport security is severely compromised in Egypt and the terrorist group managed to get the bomb on board before takeoff. A British tourist complained that he had to carry his own luggage to a plane at Sharm el-Sheikh and there is a consensus among British holidaymakers that airport security is almost non-existent at Sharm el-Sheikh.
U.S. Military Radar and Satellite Data released details the aircraft breaking up at high altitude as well Satellite IR-Light data indicated a large flash of heat at that moment as well which is indicative to a bomb exploding within the aircraft. AboveAlpha
