winter is sun at the start of the russian winter. estimates from the russian travel agency authority are that there are some 50,000 russian citizens in egypt right now, and they obviously have to be evacuated back to russia before this suspension of flights can be really set out in force. and you are there at sharm el sheikh at the airport, and what can you tell the us about the bbc reports suggesting that someone at the airport may have put this explosive device in the cargo hold just before take off? well sh, the fact that many british carriers are now saying that they will not allow any luggage into the hold of their planes is really giving a lot of people here pause for thought. it is definitely a sense that there is credence to the bbc report that the head of the ports an airports here in the sinai peninsula told cnn that they are giving the british personnel on the ground the here
ak ssz to all of the planes. they are allowing them to go through what they need to go through and whatever they need to go through to feel comfortable, but in spite of that, they are not going to be allowing hold luggage. you have a sense that the officials are reeling, a a nd ft the bbc report and then a statement from putin and the fsb, and none of that, the egyptians say was communicated to them bilaterally before it was announced. there is a real worry that you feel storm cloud gathering in the country of a country seen as a real partner in terms of the security cooperation and the broader issue of terror around the world is blind sided in its own backyard and the backdrop of all of this is the confusion among t amongst the tourists. if they could not handle the tense of thousands of brits and europeans that should have been out ohere nowadays, how do they handle the tens of thousands of russians on top of it. people are worried and they are starting to feel quite scared.
