A Russian passenger plane carrying 224 people crashed on Saturday in Egypt's restive Sinai Peninsula.
A senior aviation official said the plane was a charter flight operated by a Russian company carrying 217 passengers and seven crew member.
The Airbus A321-231 is believed to have been manufactured in 1997 and is owned by a Dublin-based company.
The flight took off from Sinai's Sharm el-Sheikh, a popular destination for Russian tourists, at 5.51am local time and disappeared from radar screens 23 minutes after take-off, a statement carried by the MENA agency said.
