The Kremlin press service (quote RIA News):
The head of state agreed with these recommendations (recommendations of the head of the FSC). Putin instructed the government to work out mechanisms for implementing these recommendations of the NAC and ensuring the return of Russian citizens to their homeland. The President also ordered to establish cooperation with the Egyptian side to ensure the safety of air traffic.
For reference: Alexander Bortnikov during a meeting of the National Anti-Terrorism Committee said that he considers it appropriate to suspend the flights of the Russian aviation to Egypt.
Today it became known that the units of the army special forces of Egypt arrived at Sharm-al-Sheikh airport. It is reported that the special forces help evacuate from the airport foreign nationals who are still unable to fly home due to the fact that the airlines of a number of countries have announced a temporary refusal to fly to this Egyptian airport.
