"The airport has received a telegram from Rosaviatsia notifying of the ban on the flights of Egypt Air to Russia from November 14," an airport spokesman told RIA Novosti.
Earlier in November, a number of states, including the United Kingdom and Russia, imposed bans on flights to Egypt due to suspicions that the Russian Airbus A321 passenger plane crashed in the Sinai Peninsula as a result of a terrorist attack.
The Airbus A321 passenger plane operated by Russian airline Kogalymavia crashed on October 31 en route from the Egyptian resort city of Sharm El-Sheikh to St. Petersburg. All 224 people on board were killed. The crash is the biggest air disaster in the history of Russian and Soviet civil aviation and one of the 30 most deadly air disasters of all time.
