Egyptian investigators have located the wreckage of EgyptAir flight MS804, which crashed in the Mediterranean last month.

A statement said “several main locations of the wreckage” had been identified.

Some 66 people were on board the Airbus A320 when it came down on May 19th on route from Paris to Cairo.

The Egyptian investigation committee said that investigators on board the John Lethbridge search vessel would now draw up a map of the wreckage distribution.

The cause of the crash remains a mystery.

A terror attack has not been ruled out but no extremist group has claimed the downing of the plane.
