CAIRO/MOSCOW, April 19 (RIA Novosti) - An Egyptian combat helicopter has joined the search for a missing Russian tourist in Egypt, the Russian embassy in Cairo said on Sunday.
Boris Maksimov went missing more than three days ago after failing to return from a night excursion to the Moses Mountain in South Sinai.
"It has been decided to involve a helicopter of the Egyptian Air Force in the search," Timur Agametov, the embassy's vice-consul, said.
The ground search carried out by the Egyptian police together with local residents has yielded no results.
