The cause of the crash of an Airbus A320 passenger plane that occurred in 2016 was an oxygen leak in the cockpit.

Technical malfunctions were reported during the last five flights. But airline pilots and a technical center in Cairo ignored them, according to the Wall Street Journal, citing confidential documents from a French court investigation.

According to a preliminary investigation, the airliner, which arrived the day before the crash in Paris, was out of order. Moreover, this information should have been known to EgyptAir. However, the Egyptian Ministry of Civil Aviation denied this information. Traces of explosives were found in the bodies of the victims.

Recall that the EgyptAir A320, flying from Paris to Cairo with flight MS804, disappeared from radar on the morning of May 19, 2016. Onboard there were 66 people. A day later, the wreckage of the airliner was discovered at sea 290 kilometers north of the city of Alexandria.

Earlier it was reported that the new automobile brand TOGG from Turkey introduced the first two models that will become serial in the near future.
