British intelligence went
back over existing material and began to see some kind of signal that indicated
a bomb had been placed on this aircraft.
Sound of an explosion can
be heard on the black box recorder of the downed Russian jet, according to
reports in France.
The France 2 TV channel
quotes an investigator with access to the black box - but the country's BEA
accident and investigation body said it could not confirm his claims.
If correct, the report
seems to support UK intelligence suggesting a bomb was smuggled into the hold
of the Russian jet that crashed in Egypt last weekend, killing all 224 people
on board.
UK spies found evidence of
a major plot in intercepts picked up during a review of the disaster, Sky News
understands.
The discovery has created a
diplomatic row between the UK and Russia, who, having previously played down
Islamic State claims of responsibility, want to see the intelligence.
Thought as much
