The first round of negotiations with the Egyptian authorities on compensation took place in Cairo

Lawyers from DTK Partners, representing the families of Russian citizens who died in the Sinai plane crash in 2015, have taken an important step toward justice. The first round of negotiations with the Egyptian authorities recently took place in Cairo, with both Russian and Egyptian legal representatives participating. The main goal of these talks is to discuss compensation for the families of the victims of the tragedy.

What Happened

The Sinai air disaster, which occurred on October 31, 2015, remains one of the deadliest events in modern aviation history. As a result of a terrorist attack involving a bomb explosion aboard an Airbus A321 operated by Kogalymavia, all 224 passengers and crew members were killed — the majority were Russian citizens. This devastating tragedy left hundreds of families grieving and triggered widespread international condemnation.

Cairo Negotiations: A First Step Toward Justice

The Cairo negotiations mark a significant step in the effort to protect the rights of the victims’ families. Our legal team at DTK Partners is actively engaging in discussions with Egyptian officials, seeking fair compensation for the losses suffered. While the potential compensation amounts remain undisclosed, the dialogue continues as part of a broader legal process that includes claims filed against the airline, its insurer, and Egyptian government officials.

Legal Claims Based on Negligence and Security Failures

The families of the victims have filed lawsuits seeking compensation for gross negligence they believe led to the tragedy. The claims cite several key contributing factors:

• Inadequate airport security measures at Sharm El Sheikh International Airport,

• Lack of oversight and control by the airline,

• Ineffective actions by Egyptian state authorities.

The legal arguments presented by DTK Partners are based on a detailed analysis of the crash and international aviation and legal standards.

Representing Victims’ Families in Court

The ongoing legal proceedings against Egyptian officials, the airline, and the insurance company aim to establish accountability for the deadly incident. Our lawyers represent the interests of the affected families, presenting all necessary evidence and legal reasoning to support their claims.

We are pursuing not only financial compensation but also legal responsibility for those at fault, which is an essential part of achieving justice.

Our Fight for Justice Continues

The negotiations in Egypt are only the beginning. We understand that no amount of compensation can replace the lives lost, but our goal is to ensure that the families receive meaningful compensation and recognition of the injustice they endured.

At DTK Partners, we are using every available national and international legal mechanism to protect our clients’ rights. We remain committed to keeping the public informed on the progress of both the negotiations and legal proceedings, doing everything we can to ensure the 2015 Sinai plane crash does not go unanswered.
