Bodies of Egypt balloon crash victims brought home
(03-11 19:35)
The bodies of nine Hong Kong people who were among the 19 killed in a hot air balloon tragedy in Egypt last month were flown back to the city today.
The bodies of the five women and four men have arrived in Hong Kong and will be transferred to a public mortuary, a government spokeswoman said, AFP reports.
The balloon was carrying 21 people at an altitude of 300 meters feet during a sunrise flight over Egypt's ancient temple city of Luxor on February 26 when it caught fire.
