Britain is planning emergency measures to repatriate holidaymakers from Sharm el-Sheikh, Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond said today after Britain voiced concerns that a Russian jet that crashed near there last week may have been brought down by a bomb.
"We're working with the airlines and the Egyptian authorities now to put in place emergency short-term measures that will allow us to safely bring back the British tourists who are there in Sharm," Hammond said on Sky News television.
