An explosion of the homemade bomb of up to 1kg of TNT equivalent was the cause of the A321 crash in Sinai, Russian Security Service (FSB) head Alexander Bortnikov said.

“According to our specialists’ assessment, a homemade explosive device with an equivalent of 1 kilogram of TNT on board the aircraft exploded, which lead to the plane 'breaking up' in midair, which would explain the scattering of the plane’s fuselage across a wide area,” Bortnikov said during a meeting.

Russian Special Forces have determined the A321 passenger jet that crashed over Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula on October 31 killing all 224 on board was a terrorist act.

“We can definitely say this was a terrorist act,” Russian Federal Security Service head Alexander Bortnikov said during a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

An investigation into A321 crash shows traces of an explosive material in personal items and parts of the plane, Bortnikov added.
He also said that Russia offers $50mln for the information on those who might have been involved in the terrorist attack on the A321.

A Russian Airbus A321 with 224 people on board crashed on October 31 while en route from Egypt’s resort city of Sharm el-Sheikh to St. Petersburg, leaving no survivors. Various possible causes of the tragedy have been set out by aviation experts, ranging from a terrorist act to a technical glitch.

Ha!

Putin is getting himself and his country in a hell on earth. Middle East is not a good place to get your country in. That's the reason I want my beloved America out of that cursed area. It's a civil war between the Sunnis and the Shiites. To me, they can all kill each other over there in the M/E as long as they don't bring their murderous adventure to US. I pray Obama gets the hell out of that cursed area called the Middle East.

Just as I thought!! I knew the plane can't be shot down but blew off. The only way they can achieve major victory over those terrorist groups is if there is cooperation. There is need for Russia and America to be the same page but unfortunately they seem to be interested in dominance hence, wasting the lives of the innocents.

Exactly.It's a common enemy and each party needs to leave their differences in their sleeves and act for the safety and sovereignty of their nations by working together to root out terrorism at all cost.
