Meanwhile, Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi ordered all necessary measures to locate the missing plane. Greece joined in the search, deploying aircraft and a frigate.
France will be sending three investigators to Cairo to join the probe, headed by Egypt. The Airbus from Paris to Cairo disappeared from the radar on Thursday. It was carrying 56 passengers, including a child and two infants, and 10 crew. The cause of the disappearance is still undetermined.
