Welcome to early start. Im christine romans. Im john berman. November 5th. New information on the crash of the jet in the sinai peninsula. The plane was most likely brought down by a bomb planted by isis or one of its an fill yacht. That is what several officials are telling cnn. That is backed up bring British Forces and similar officils using similar language. One tells cnn the bomb may have had assistance from inside the airport itself. Lets get latest from cnns barbara starr. Reporter it is possible that someone in the airport at Sharm El Sheikh may have been involved in trying to get a bomb on board the aircraft. Where it stands now is it is not absolute. It is not a final assessment. The u. S. Intelligence Community Increasingly believes it may have been a bomb that brought down the airplane killing all 224 souls on board. A u. S. Official telling me and i quote, there is a definite feeling it was an explosive device planted in luggage or somewhere on the plane. The u. S. Has been monitoring isis communications. They believe it is possible it was isis or an isis affiliate behind all of this. They had been worried about the security situation in sinai for months as militants increasingly moved in. After the attack, they began to see the isis online claims. These Online Communications that are not part of the public claims of responsibility. Think of it as isis chatter if you will that the u. S. Intelligence community is monitoring. We now have seen the u. K. , ireland respond by cutting flights to Sharm El Sheikh. A lot of concern about security at the airport there. It must be said that the Egyptian Government right now is still saying that the airport is safe. John. Barbara starr, thank you. The possibility of a bomb brought down flight 9268 creating concern in the United Kingdom where Sharm El Sheikh is a popular Tourist Destination. Britain and ireland suspended all flights to and from the airport there. Stranding nearly 20,000 british tourists. U. K. Officials say the report was driven by a report by exhibiexper experts who found problems at the airport. Lets bring in max foster for the latest. Reporter and an emergency meeting here at downing street will work out the latest intelligence. Intelligence came on yesterday which prompted this response in banning all flights from Sharm El Sheikh. 35,000 tourists were expected back from the area today. They have to err on the side of caution on this one. This frustrated the egyptians because they believe the british have waited for the outcome. Britain cannot wait because british lives are under threat. We have not gotten access of the intelligence. The british team is on the ground assessing the security situation at Sharm El Sheikh airport. They accept improvements have been made, but not gone far enough. That is the reason for the flights being suspended. President cici is coming here today on a preplanned visit. We will get his First Response here. David cameron will be asking, john, why british lives are potentially at risk in the airport. What can be done to improve security there. Max foster at 10 downing street. Awkward indeed because egypt inn visits Sharm El Sheikh is still safe. Lets talk about that more with cnns ben wedeman live in cairo. Ben, the egyptians say it is safe. You have been in and out of that airport a lot. How safe is it . Reporter lets say what i have seen over the 14 years i lived here was security at Sharm El Sheikh is relaxed. It is a Tourist Destination. Very busy place. Often times you dont get the feeling that they are on high alert, to say the least. Certainly now given the eyes of the world are upon that airport, clearly security has been hyped up a bit. The horse is out of the barn at this point. Its questionable whether it will be able to receive tourism and tourists at the level it about in the past. As far as egyptian officials reacting to the suggestions by american officials that perhaps there was a bomb on board the aircraft, we did hear from a spokesman for the egyptian president in london at the moment saying we should not get ahead of ourselves when it comes to the results of the investigation. One final note, this morning, on the front page of the newspaper in cairo, there is no mention of the metrojet crash in any form. It appears the egyptians are remaining mum on suggestions there may have been a bomb on the aircraft. Fascinating. Thanks. Also new this morning, russian Officials Say one of the two planes black boxes has serious damage. They say it will take a lot more work to read the information from it. We have Nic Robertson with more. Reporter there have been new developments overnight. Nothing from the russians specifically about this report of a bomb may have been put aboard the aircraft. What we have heard is that the metrojets other a321 aircraft have been grounded by the Aviation Authority. These aircraft were inspected and cleared for service earlier in the week. We heard from the spokesperson that said the egyptians are leading the investigation and we need to wait for that work to be completed. We heard from the Aviation Authority here in russia saying it is up to egypt to put out any information about the investigation first. It would be illegal for russia to comment on the investigation without the express permission of the Egyptian Government. So thats the position that we are getting from russia authorities here. We also know today is the funeral of the first of the victims being buried today. Officials say 14 bodies will be repatriated to families today. So far the identification continues. Close to 50 bodies identified now. John. Nic robertson for us in st. Petersburg. You can see what is going on from russia to england and the United States with officials weighing in. And the families waiting for their loved ones to come back and this is all part of the crime scene. They are investigating the difference in the shrapnel. Dick cheney and Donald Rumsfeld being criticized over the administration. That report coming up. Candidates both republican and democrat converge on New Hampshire. The front runner donald trump was first in line when the filing period started wednesday. He used the occasion to go after marco rubio. Rubio is returning fire. We get more from cnns dana bash in New Hampshire. Reporter john and christine, it is busy in New Hampshire this time of year in an election year. Especially right now because it is filing time for the candidates to actually get on the ballot for the first in the nation primary. Later today, marco rubio is going to sign his name and make sure he is going to be there. Yesterday, it was donald trump. Of course, as he tends to do, came with a lot of fanfare. It was a big event. He signed it, but then took a couple of shots at some of the opponents who seem to be giving him more of a run for his money. Marco rubio is one of them. That is where trump decided to hit him the hardest on questions about finances from way back when marco rubio was in the statehouse with the credit card he used. Marco rubio has a disaster on his finances. He has a disaster on his credit cards. When you check his credit cards, take a look at what hes done with the Republican Party when he had access. What he had to put back in and whether or not something should have happened. Reporter as for rubio, he insists this is a non issue. He will release the credit card statements from back when he was in the statehouse to prove he did not use the Republican Partys credit card or money. He paid everything that he spent on his personal expenses himself. He had this to say to me in response to donald trump. Thats donald being donald. Whenever there is a bad poll, he gets weird. He doesnt know what he is talking about. This was an American Express card. If there were personal expenses, i paid them directly to American Express. Reporter a pretty good reason for donald trump to be setting his sights on marco rubio more than he has in the past. Particularly here in New Hampshire because rubio is climbing pretty big in the polls here. He went from just 2 a couple months ago to 11 which puts him third. New hampshire is such a key place for so many of these players. Donald trump really wants to remain on top and continues to push the others down. It is still a long three or four months until the first in the nation primary here. John and christine. 90 days. 90 plus days. When is california . June . Maybe it will go all the way to california.

She is doing three big fundraisers. Including one hosted by the singer christine aguilera. What is your favorite Christine Song . Roar . George h. W. Bush is reportedly blasting key figures in his sons administration. Dick cheney and Donald Rumsfeld. This is part of a new book. The elder book says as Vice President , cheney built his own empire and asserted too much hard line influence in the white house. As for the defense secretary, bush says he was arrogant and served the president badly. The books author john meechem said he was much harder after 9 11 than before. This book is riddled with swear words. The elder george uses the word ass a lot. I can use that on tv. It is an old fashion time for a new start on your money. China stocks up 20 .

How did he do that . Investigators believe that he planted evidence on the scene to distract them. Things like leaving pepper pr spray. Then a few feet away, dropping a baton and other objects. It took authorities two months to determine this was indeed a suicide. There are no winners here. Gliniewicz committed the ultimate betrayal. To the sit citizens and Law Enforcement community. He behaved in a manner contrary to the image he portrayed. Reporter what was the motive . Investigators believe authorities were zeroing in on gliniewicz for alleged criminal activity that spanned seven years. That gliniewicz was using the explorers program, a Mentorship Program for teens, to launder money. Those monies were used to pay his mortgage, to access adult web sites among other things. As for his family, they are asking for privacy and as you know, there was support emotionally and financially for that family. Cnn learned one organization that gave that family 15,000 is asking for that money back. John and christine. Such a sad story. You have to think the family is still a victim here. Yes. Although, the family being looked into or discussed as well. Part of the investigation. Yes. 25 minutes past the hour. U. S.

Intelligence suggests that isis could be behind this tragedy. We have Team Coverage breaking down all the developments overnight. It begins right now. Welcome back to early start. Im john berman. Im christine romans. Breaking overnight. New information on the crash of metrojet 9268 in the sinai desert. The latest u. S. Intelligence suggests that plane was most likely brought down by a bomb planted by isis or one of its affiliates. That is what several u. S. Officials are telling cnn backed up by british officials using similar language. One u. S. Official tells cnn the bombing may have been an inside job. The latest on that from cnns barbara starr. Reporter our own elise labott is hearing from her sources it is possible that someone at the airport in Sharm El Sheikh may have been involved in trying to get a bomb on board the aircraft. Where it stands now is it is not absolute. It is not a final assessment. The u. S. Intelligence community may believe it was a bomb bringing down that airplane killing all 224 souls on board. The u. S. Official telling me, quote there is a definite feeling it was an explosive device planted in luggage or somewhere on the plane. The u. S. Has been monitoring isis communications. They believe it is possible it was either isis or isis affiliate behind all of this. They have been worried about the security situation in sinai for months as militants increasingly moved in. After the attack, they began to see isis online claims. These Online Communications that are not part of the public claims of responsibility. Think of it as isis chatter if you will that the u. S. Intelligence community is monitoring. We have now seen the u. K. , ireland response by cutting their flights to Sharm El Sheikh. A lot of concern about security at the airport there, but it must be said the Egyptian Government right now is still saying that the airport is safe. John, christine. Barbara, this morning, the possibility that a bomb brought down this flight is creating special concern in the United Kingdom where Sharm El Sheikh is a Tourist Destination. There are 20,000 u. K. Tourists in the region now. There is so much speculation because all flights have been banned to and from there. This decision was driven by an expert driven by security at the Sharm El Sheikh airport. Lets bring in max foster in london. The latest on this issue . Reporter there will be the latest in many coming hours with the Prime Minister and then president cici visits here. A longer planned event. Not just planned for today, but incredibly awkward. The egyptians feel if the brits were premature on this. The brits saying they could not wait for the outcome of the investigation because they believe british lives are at risk. It rotates around the airport in Sharm El Sheikh and whether or not it is secure. What they are trying to do, they have a team on the ground, is work and feel comfortable at Sharm El Sheikh and it has been screened properly before the flights are started. 35,000 people should be on the way back today, but how many brits have been inconvenienced. How the Prime Minister can secure british lives at the egyptian airport before he allows the flights to be restarted. The secretary did say, christine, he wants flights up and running by tomorrow. He seems optimistic to deal with the security concerns. Max foster, thank you. Egypt is insisting the airport is still safe this morning. I want to bring in senior dont ben wedeman. He is live in cairo. Ben, from your experience, your vast experience in egypt and region, what is security like at Sharm El Sheikh international . Reporter i think if you speak to anybody who has traveled there frequently, it is relaxed. You dont get the feeling that security is very high unlike many other airports in this part of the world. It is normally an exclusively Tourist Destination and many people going there expect things to be relaxed. The searches are not particularly intrusive. There is not much in the way of questioning of people who are getting on flights. In terms of the security measures in place behind the scenes that you would not normally see. It is difficult to say. There is this british delegation of aviation experts or Airport Security experts there trying to determine how safe the airport is. Obviously now that the eyes of the world are upon that airport, security is going to be very tight, but going forward, the question is the worry of the egyptian officials is that the impact on the Tourism Industry certainly Sharm El Sheikh is wholly dependent on tourists from russia and u. K. And elsewhere in europe. News that this airport is not safe and certainly keep in mind that 224 people died in that russian aircraft for reasons this are not all together clear, this is going to have an impact on security. Ben wedeman, thank you. Interesting. Egyptian officials are in the u. K. Right now and on a threeday visit and this is happening. Remarkable. You see the competing interests. We have breaking news from russia. Russia grounding a fleet of airplanes while safety checks conducted. Why are they doing this . Do they believe it is not a terrorist attack . We are live with that next. All right. Breaking news this morning. Russia is grounding metrojet airbus 321 fleet in the wake of the crash the airliner. The same model that crashed in the sinai peninsula. We have Nic Robertson with the latest on this story. What has been grounded and why . Reporter metrojet has other aircraft other than the one that crashed in egypt. Those have both been grounded by Russian Aviation authorities. That will leave some people, executives at metrojet crashing their heads. The jets are cleared for service after being reviewed. Russia announced it will send additional and more sophisticated groundtoair Missile Systems to syria in case of aircraft being hijacked there. On the one hand, you have russia acting as if it perceived an increased terrorist threat by sending the Missile Systems to syria, and on the other hand, you have it pointing in the direction of some kind of airline or aircraft or Aircraft Operation problem of metrojet. The impression it creates is one where the waters are being muddied rather than clarified. We heard absolutely nothing from russian officials. Ing neither from the kremlin or the authority, of the possibility of a bomb on the aircraft. When we continue to hear from officials here, egypt leads the investigation and everyone must wait for egypt to conclude that. They have the responsibility in this regard. The kremlin is on this strangely silent. John. Nic robertson, thanks. There may be competing interests here. Egypt wants a sense of Sharm El Sheikh is safe. We will wait and see. And donald trump back on top of the new poll. Donald trump lashing out at a new competitor who is quickly gaining ground. We have that next. Both republican and democrats converging on New Hampshire to file for the first in the nations primary. Donald trump was first in line when the filing began. He used the time to go after marco rubio on his personal finances. Senator rubio is moving up in the polls and returning fire. Lets get more from cnns dana bash in New Hampshire.

Yesterday, it was donald trump. Of course, as he tends to do, came with a lot of fanfare. A big event. He signed it, but he also took a couple of shots at some of the opponents who seem to be giving him more and more of a run for his money. Marco rubio is one of them. Speaking of money, that is where trump decided to hit him the hardest on questions about finances from way back when marco rubio was in the statehouse with the credit card he used. Here is what donald trump said about that. Marco rubio has a disaster on his finances. He has a disaster on his credit cards. When you check his credit cards, look at what he has done with the Republican Party when he had access and what he had to put back in and whether or not something should have happened. Reporter as for rubio, he says this is a non issue. He will release the credit card statements from back in the statehouse to prove he did not use the Republican Partys credit card or money. He paid everything that he spent on his personal expenses himself. He had this to say to me in response to donald trump. That is donald being donald. Whenever there is a bad poll, he does these things. The American People need to understand this is an American Express card. If there were personal items, i paid them. Reporter there is a good reason for donald trump to be setting his sight on marco rubio. Particularly here in New Hampshire. Rubio is climbing in the polls here. He went from just 2 a couple months ago to 11 , which puts him third. New hampshire is such a key place for so many of the players. Donald trump really wants to remain on top and continues to push the others down. It is still a long three or four months until the first in the nation primary. John and christine. Thank you, dana.
