CAIRO - Mexico s foreign minister said in Cairo on Wednesday that her government is demanding a thorough, comprehensive, prompt and transparent investigation into why Egyptian security forces mistakenly attacked a tourist convoy last Sunday that left 12 people dead - among them 8 Mexican tourists - and 10 wounded.Secretary of Foreign Affairs Claudia Ruiz Massieu s comments came in a joint press conference with Egyptian Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry as Egypt attempts to manage a crisis that has threatened a tourism industry already battered by years of political unrest, strained bilateral relations, and reinvigorated criticism of its security forces.But only hours after the foreign ministers appeared together and Shoukry vowed that Egypt would vigorously pursue a transparent investigation into this regrettable incident, the Egyptian prosecutor general issued a gag order banning all media, both domestic and international, from discussing the ca

Investigators searched the still-smoldering wreckage of a jetliner that slammed into the Nigerian bush, seeking flight-data recorders and other clues Monday to the

kubki stanley io.Fidelis Onyenyiri, chief of the National Civil Aviation Authority, said the crash appeared to be an accident. The weather was not too bad, but there was lightning, and an airplane struck by lightning could lose total control, Onyenyiri told reporters on Sunday. So there is a likelihood of a natural cause. The impact appeared to cause the plane s virtual disintegration. Small bits of fuselage, human flesh and clothing were strewn in nearby trees. A hand and leg lay on the ground. No identifiable bodies could be seen but the smell of death hung in the air.Acrid smoke still curled from the eight-yard-deep pit as investigators picked through wreckage, looking for flight-data recorders, the so-called black boxes, which are actually often blaze orange for easier identification. We are here to secure the site to enable the investigators to do their work. They re tryin

Kyrgyzstan s parliament voted Thursday to close a key U.S. air base in the country - a move that could hamper President Obama s efforts to increase the number of U.S. forces in Afghanistan.Deputies voted 78-1 for the government-backed bill to cancel the lease agreement on the Manas air base, a transit point for 15,000 troops and 500 tons of cargo each month to and from Afghanistan. Two deputies abstained.If President Kurmanbek Bakiyev signs the bill and Kyrgyz authorities issue an eviction notice, the United States will have
