Egyptian Hijacker Had Fake Suicide Belt
埃及劫机犯携假腰带劫机
An Egyptian passenger jet carrying 81 people, including 21 foreigners and 15 crew members was diverted to Cyprus on Tuesday due to a hijacking. The lone hijacker claimed to be wearing a suicide belt, but it turned out to be fake. The motive of the hijacker is unknown, but officials are not calling it an act of terrorism. During the ordeal, several of the hostages were released and one escaped out of a cockpit window. All of the hostages on the EgyptAir plane were eventually released safely and the hijacker surrendered.
