ReplyDelete1. A bomb went off and killed ecveryine on it
2. They suspended all flights to Egypt
3. Because tousrism is a major part of their economy.
4. They say its not their only possibil sentries.
5. Because they want to test it for explosivies.
8. They are reinforcing screening procedures in Cairo but still accepting checked-in luggage and they told citizens not to travel to the Red Sea resort.
9. I think that they should because we all live in this world and things like a bomb on a plane (which could have happened to anyone) effect everyone, it causes people to feel unsafe because there is no saying that coluldnt happen here.

7.The Metrojet Airbus A321
8. Suspended flights to Sharm el-Shekih
9. Yes because it could prevent any more terrorist acts.
Samantha Hayes

Wynn Marchand
ReplyDelete1. A bomb went off in the plane.
2. Russia banned all flights to Egypt.
3. Egypt tourism depends on Russia and Europe.
4. No.
9. No, it is a Russian affair and if they don't want our help them we should stop pressuring Russia to do what we want them to.
Rachel Walker
ReplyDelete1. He may have been downed by the bomb.
2. Banned all flights to Egypt.
3. Egypt's tourism sector has been almost dependent on Russian and European tourist.
4. Not exactly because they have concerns about security.
9. No because if Britain and the United States get involved, it would make the situation worse and lead to bigger issues.
Lacey Martin
ReplyDelete1. It crashed, most likely by a planted bomb
2. banned flights to Egypt
3. Egypt is almost completely dependent on Russian tourism
4. Not necessarily, they are only saying its about issues with security.
5. Most of the passengers were Russian tourists returning home.
9. No, they should not interfere, there is so far no guarantee that this even was an act of terrorism even though it is highly suspicious. If it gets to the point that the activity has escalated and is affecting other countries, then it would be right to intervene. But as most of the passengers were in fact Russians, there is no reason Britain and the US should come in unless they are requested to help.
Burton Drawhorn 6th
ReplyDelete1. The airliner crashed shortly after takeoff.
2. They banned all flights to Egypt for a couple of months.
3. They are unhappy with this because a vital section of Egypts tourism industry has been completely dependant on Russian and European visitors and having these flights banned means they will lose lots of money.
4. Yes they do, evidence shows that a bomb was planted on board and this si obviously a act of terrorism.
9. If anybody on board the plane was European or American then yes they do have a right to interfere with investigations and have a say. If nobody was a citizen of either of those areas then why would they want to interfere and no I dont think they have the right to do so.
Abbey Ray,
ReplyDelete1.The plane crashed most likely due to a bomb that was on the plane and killed all of the passengers.
2.The Russian government has ceased all flights to Egypt for the next few months.
3.Egypt is reassuring people that they will be safe in Egypt and that they will return home safely.
4.Based on what I read, I do think that Russia is handling the situation as if it was an act of terrorism.
9.I think that these two countries should interfere with the situation because they are trying to protect the Russian people, just like we would want them to do for us if we were in this situation.
Brent Smith
ReplyDelete1. Downed by bomb
2. Baned flights
3. Russia is the main country that has people that visit
4. Yes
9. No, because one its has nothing to do with us and Britain.
Elle Turner
ReplyDelete1. It crashed, likely because of a bomb onboard.
2. They banned all flights.
3. Egypt is completely dependent on Russian and European tourist.
4. Yes.
5. To investigate the crash more.
6. To show the airport has poor security.
7. Islamic - State
8. Cancels flights to Sharm El- Sheikh
9. No, they have no say at all. If Russia wants to act like it wasn't a terrorist attack, then let them be stupid. Britain and the US should keep their mouths shut before Putin bombs us all...
Marley Hobbs-
ReplyDelete1. All of the commotion was started due the crash of a plane caused by either a bomb or the Islamic States.
2. The Egyptians were mad because Russia expended all flights to Egypt do to security concerns
3. Egypt is decrying them because they gained lots of money from tourist in Russia.
4. I do not believe that it was an act of terrorism, but more of a safety precaution.
5. NA
6. NA
7. ISIS is claiming to be responsible for the plane crash.
8. NA
9. I don’t think the other counties should interfere with this because the people in the crash, but I could see why they would want to be involved because they could be next.
Liam Andrus
ReplyDelete1. An airplane full off Russian tourists crashed.
2. Ban all flights to Sharm el-Sheikh
3. Because Egypt relies on Tourists from Russia because they make up 45% of tourists.
4. . Not necessarily. Russia could think anything, but it is most likely that they would assume the bomb was an act of terrorism.
9. The U.S. and Britain need to just "Stay in their own lanes" and worry about their own business because Egypt might get mad at the U.S and Britain for labeling them as terrorists, which could lead to later conflict that could be easily avoided.
Chris Perkins
ReplyDelete1. A bomb was placed on the plane.
2. Russia's government decided to stop flights to Egypt for several months at least.
3. Egypt's decrying the actions, because it will hurt Egypt's tourism and airline businesses.
4. Yes, because that means they don't think it was just a malfunction, but something someone did to the plane to sabotage it.
5-8. not listed
9. Britain and the U.S. should be able to interfere with the situation, because they're trying to help and it's a national matter, not just a Russian problem.
Kelsi Hobson
ReplyDelete1. The plane crashed.
2. They banned all flights to Egypt.
3. It will hurt the tourism industry because its during the peak season for Russian visitors.
4. I feel like they think it's a possibility that it could have been an act of terrorism. They would not have banned flights to Egypt if they thought it was a plane malfunction or an accident .
9. I do believe the United States and Britian should interfere because if it is an act of terrorism and there is a possibilty of it happening in the U.S., they should stop it before it gets out of control.
1. The Russian airliner crashed.
ReplyDelete2. Russia, or specifically Moscow, decided to ban all flights to Egypt for at least several months.
3. Egypt is upset at Russia’s actions because most of their tourists come from Russia and other European countries, so it is costing them a lot of money to lose so much business.
4. Possibly. They believe that the crash was because of a bomb that had been planted on the plane. The Russians are worried that Egypt’s airports are unsafe and they have their speculations.
9. No, they should not interfere because Russia hasn’t even found evidence that the plane crash was caused by a bomb. Most of the occupants on the plane were Russian, so it’s not up to the United States and Britain to determine if it was a terrorist attack or not. Plus, if Russia claims it was a terrorist attack with very little evidence and then they discover that it was not a terrorist attack, that will just infuriate the Egyptians more and will probably begin a feud or a war.
Amy Ingle-
ReplyDelete1.) they put a bomb on the plane
2.)they stopped a lot of traveling in and out of the country
4.) Yes they want to be safe
5.) that is where it crashed
9.) Yes, if someone can get away with something in Egypt they might be able to do something in their country as well.
LAUREN BECK
ReplyDelete1)
2) They have canceled all of the flights.
3) They do not like the fact that all of their tourism is being taken away and their "popularity" is being degraded.
4) I think that the country believes that something is up. If they are going through such great lengths to keep people out of Egypt, there is something wrong. Plane crashes happen a lot, but I havent seen a government step in like that and completely cut off transportation.
9) If these two countries have been pressuring Russia do call it an act of terrorism, then they might have something going on to where they benefit from Russia considering it a terrorist act. I do believe that they should stay out of it, though. It is Russia's problem and I think that these two countries already have enough to worry about and handle.
Griffin Eldridge
ReplyDelete1. It crashed and killed all 224 passengers.
2. They cancelled all flights to Egypt.
3. Because Egypt needs the tourists to keep coming because it makes up most of their tourist revenue.
4. Not necessarily Russia is probably just stopping all flights just to make sure it was not terrorism, they will probably investigate not just jump to conclusions.
9. I do not think that others countries should interfere because they have nothing to do with the situation, this is between Russia and Egypt only.
Jake Hammonds
ReplyDelete1. It crashed.
2. It canceled all flights to Egypt
3. Because almost half of Egypt's customers come from Russia
4. Yes, they actually think that there was a bomb on-board
9. I do not think they should, because what happened had nothing to do with the other two other countries and it should be only Russia's decision since they had the most people lost
Reagan Ray
ReplyDelete1. The Russian airliner crashed.
2. The Russian government banned all flights to Egypt.
3. The president of Egypt went to the airport to insure people that they want them safe while they are in Egypt and to get back home safely.
4. The Russian's believe that there was most likely a bomb onboard the plane and that it could have been an act of terrorism.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9. Yes, the other countries have the right to interfere because if this was a terrorist act then Egypt could possibly try to hurt their countries.
KaRon Coleman Jr.
ReplyDelete1. A bomb
2. That they are banning flights for a least a month
3. Because they want them to be secure and safe
4. Yes
5. Because there were recovering bodies.
9. No because it is simply none of our buisness. If the crash didn't happen in America or Britian, then we don't need to worry about it or make decisions for them.
Maxine Ball
ReplyDelete1. There was a bomb planted onboard.
2. They banned any flights to Egypt.
3. Because Egypt relies on the tourism of the Russians.
4. More than likely yes, because the world is so full of terrorists now, it’s hard not to believe any tragedy was not caused my terrorists.
9.No, the US and Britain should not interfere with this situation, especially if close to none of the passengers on board were American or British. Interfering can potentially cause many problems.
Tyra Dunn
ReplyDelete1: A bomb planted on the plane.
2: Banned all flights to Egypt.
3: To make sure people get to and from safely.
4: No, it doesn't. They could still believe that it was just an unlucky coincidence.
9: No , they shouldn't interfere because it doesn't affect us much, and there are many other places to visit besides Russia.
Alex George
ReplyDelete1) It crashed killing all 224 people on board.
2) They banned all flights going to Egypt for several months.
3) Because they are dependent on tourists visiting resorts for income.
4) Possible and they are also questioning airport security in Egypt.
9) Yes because terrorism can affect the entire world so if Russia gets involved in stopping terrorist organizations it will make it easier to take down groups like ISIS.
Payton Brown
ReplyDelete1. There was a bomb placed on the deck.
2. They have canceled all flights to Egypt.
3. They want visitors to visit their country, feel safe, and go back to their countries safely.
4. It does.
9. They should not because this matter involves Russia and Egypt. Other countries should not intervene if it has nothing to do with them.
Elle Allen
ReplyDelete1. Can't find it
2. They are postponing all flights from Moscow to Egypt for a few months.
3. It's peak visiting time for Russian Tourists
4. Yes and No. It mainly just means they need to look into it. But Yes, because why else would they postpone the flights really?
9. Yes, I think they have a right. Especially since people could come from Russia into others and fly from there to do the same thing, then it would really be their problem.
Elaine Doyle
ReplyDelete1 could have been blown up by a bomb
2 banned all flights to Egypt
3 other countries were investigated also
4 yes
9 No, it should be completely up to Russia and the other countries involved. It was their people who died, they should get to make the choices
Joy Chou
ReplyDelete1. It crashed in the Sinai Peninsula, killing all 224 passengers.
2. Russia suspended all passenger flights to Egypt.
3. Many of Egypt’s tourists were Russian and European, so the Egyptian tourism industry has suffered heavily because of Russia’s actions.
4. Russia is considering the plane crash a possible act of terrorism, but hasn’t confirmed it.
9. There shouldn’t be any involvement from other countries because it’s a conflict mostly concerning Russian citizens, thus making it nothing to do with other countries.
Zoie Pritchett
ReplyDelete1. The Russian airliner was crashed and they think it was from a bomb.
2. Moscow banned all flights to Egypt for the last several months.
3. Egypt's vital tourism sector has been almost completely dependent on Russian and European tourists visiting Sharm el-Sheikh and other Red Sea resorts.
4. Not necessarily, they just want to take more precautions just in case because it is very likely that it was a terrorist act.
9. No, if they weren't involved, then they don't need to intervene. It's Russia's decision as a country to decide what they think and what they believe is best for their nation.
Naiya Rice
ReplyDelete1. There is a ban that will be effective for several months on flights.
2. Russians will not be coming back.
3. The Russians make up 40% of the tourist arrivals.
4. Yes, they more than likely do feel like this palne crash was an act of terrorism because its not a coincidence that the one flight that goes down is the one with the high amount of Russians attending the flight.
9.No, I do not believe that the United States and Britian should interfere with with issue between Russia and Egypt. If the United States has a problem with how the Russian government solved the problem we can stop giving them money.
Nia Hodges
ReplyDelete1. A Russian airline crashed and people believe it was because of a bomb hidden on the plane.
2. Moscow banned all the flight to Egypt for several months.
3. Egypt’s tourism sector has been very dependent on Russian and European tourists. The ban on flights will greatly decrease the amount of tourists they receive.
4. Yes, Russians have been kept in Egypt as part of an investigation committee trying to figure out the cause of the crash. U.S. and British officials think that there was a bomb on the plane.
9. No, it’s unnecessary because we have our own issues to handle. Other countries should be on high alert if planes are becoming bombed, but they shouldn’t voluntary involve themselves.

3.People in Egypt like Ukraine and make up to 40% of its tourist population
4.Yes, They believe that Egypt is responsible
9. Yes, but they should not pressure Russia into doing something they do not want to do. Since all of them have been affected by terrorists. They probably think that Russia will be more likely to blow them up and kill them since Russia is pretty intense.
Erica Ramsey
ReplyDeletePeople drowned because of a bomb
- No Russian planes are allowed to go in or out of Egypt.
- They are just trying to keep everyone as safe as possible and most of the people who come to Egypt are Russia tourist.
- They think it's a huge possibility that it is.
- Not really, we should share our opinion to help Russia out but not fully get in it.

4. Yes, If a bomb was planted than it had to be some sort of terrorism.

Dustin Spencer
ReplyDeleteA Russian airliner crashed. The government decided to cancel all flights in and out of Moscow. Egypt is being hurt by this action because they are dependent on their income from tourist and with the flights canceled, they have no money. Russia believes this is an act of terrorism because they are trying to prevent it from happening. The United States and Britain should be in this because it causes awareness to other countries that the "big armies" are getting involved.
Hallie Grace Hamner
ReplyDelete1. It blew up and crashed, killing everyone on board.

5. Something had happened to the plane when they took of from Russia so parts may have come off before they took flight.

7. Islamic State ISIS
8. They have banned their flights also after a plane crashed into the French Alp, because it can be dangerous for people to fly right now.
