(CNN) - The latest U.S. intelligence suggests that the crash of a Russian passenger jet in the Sinai over the weekend was most likely caused by a bomb on the plane planted by ISIS or an ISIS affiliate, according to a U.S. official familiar with the matter.

The latest U.S. intelligence suggests that the crash of Metrojet Flight 9268 was most likely caused by a bomb on the plane planted by ISIS or an ISIS affiliate, according to a U.S. official familiar with the matter. The official stressed that there has not been a formal conclusion reached by the U.S. intelligence community. “There is a definite feeling it was an explosive device planted in luggage or somewhere on the plane,” the official told CNN’s Barbara Starr.

It is hard to know who will be most likely to tell the truth in this situation. Neither Russia or Egypt want it to be terror.

The deputy head of Sharm el-Sheikh airport says Britain acted too hastily when it decided to suspend flights to the airport following the crash of a Russian plane in the region.

Hany Ramsay says Britain's conclusion that the plane may have been brought down by a bomb comes “too soon” and may be aimed at damaging the country's vital tourism sector.

“Other countries might soon follow them. They want to hurt tourism and cause confusion,” Ramsey told the AP Wednesday. He suggested that ulterior political and commercial motives may be behind the British statement.

That's what Egypt is covering up for.
