EgyptAir crash: Greek minister says flight 'turned 360 degrees right'

Greek Defence Minister Panos Kammenos says the EgyptAir flight between Paris and Cairo turned violently left and right before plunging into the sea.

He told a news conference that the plane had "executed a turn of 90 degrees left and then a turn of 360 degrees towards the right, dropping from 37,000 to 15,000 feet".

The plane was carrying 66 people when it disappeared off the radar over the Mediterranean.
