Debris from the missing EgyptAir plane has been found in the Mediterranean sea, 180 miles north of the coastal city of Alexandria, media reports quoted the Egyptian military as saying on Friday.

Military says debris from plane found in Mediterranean, after EgyptAir rowed back on announcement that wreckage had been spotted. 

The navy had also found some of the passengers’ belongings and was sweeping the area in search of the plane’s black box.

The  EgyptAir flight, which was carrying 66 people in it, disappeared from the radar on Thursday.

The flight was flying from  French capital Paris to Cairo.

Egypt has been leading the search effort, with support from France, Greece and Turkey. The US navy had dispatched a P-3 Orion maritime surveillance aircraft from a base in Sicily.
