The Cairo Court of Appeal sent the claim for review to the Cairo Court of First Instance

Significant progress has been made in the case concerning the crash of A321 operated by Kogalymavia, which occurred in 2015 over the Sinai Peninsula.

The Cairo Court of Appeal has decided to return a legal claim for retrial to the Court of First Instance in Cairo. The claim was filed by the father of one of the victims who died in the tragedy.

❗ Allegations of Criminal Negligence by Egyptian Officials

The lawsuit accuses Egyptian authorities of criminal negligence. According to the plaintiff, the former Prime Minister of Egypt and three cabinet ministers failed to ensure adequate security measures.

This failure allegedly allowed terrorists to bring an explosive device on board the aircraft, resulting in a terrorist attack that killed 224 people, the majority of whom were Russian citizens. The incident remains one of the deadliest aviation disasters in recent history.

⚖️Legal Claims Filed by Dozens of Families

This case is part of a series of legal claims filed by relatives of over 70 victims of the Sinai air disaster.

The families are seeking financial compensation for the loss of their loved ones and official recognition of responsibility by Egyptian government officials.
