Egypt's military and national airline say debris from the crashed EgyptAir flight has been recovered in the Mediterranean Sea.
Greek and Egyptian officials say body parts, seats and luggage have also been found by teams searching for the missing plane. They were discovered about 180 miles north of Alexandria. EgyptAir also confirmed the discovery on its Twitter feed.
European Space Agency satellites spotted an oil slick in the area where the flight had vanished but the organisation said there was no guarantee it was from the missing plane.
Flight MS804 was en route from Paris to Cairo with 66 passengers and crew when it vanished early Thursday.
Greek, Egyptian, French and UK military units have been taking part in a search operation near Greece's Karpathos island.
Greece said radar showed the Airbus A320 had made two sharp turns and dropped more than 25,000 feet, before plunging into the sea.
Egypt says the plane was more likely to have been brought down by a terrorist act than a technical fault.
Most of the people on board were from Egypt and France. A Briton was also among the passengers.
