An EgyptAir flight from Paris to Cairo is feared to have crashed into the Mediterranean Sea after disappearing from radar overnight. The Airbus A320 went missing at 02:30 Cairo time (00:30 GMT), soon after leaving Greek airspace. There were 56 passengers - including three children - seven crew members and three security personnel on board Flight MS804, EgyptAir said. Airbus confirmed "the loss" of the 13-year-old plane. A major search and rescue operation is under way involving the Greek and Egyptian armed forces. France has offered to send boats and planes to help in the effort.
