Belarusian tourism companies will resume touristic tours to the city of Sharm El Sheikh directly from Minsk, on April 20, Youm7 News reported. A Russian civilian plane crashed in Sinai, leaving all passengers and flight crew dead, in October. International flights to Sinai were banned as a result. Flight resumption comes after organizers of touristic tours have demanded lifting the ban on flights to Sharm El Sheikh, in order for their businesses to return back to normal, after suffering heavy losses as a result of the ban decision.
