  Britain is to begin repatriating thousands of its nationals stranded in Egypt today. It follows theBritish government's decision to suspend flights to and from the resort of Sharm El-sheikhafter a Russian passenger aircraft crashed. Mark Lowen is in Sharm El-sheikh. Those flying willbe subject to additional security measures, allowed to carry only hand luggage with biggerbags checked in on separate flights. It is part of a review by British security officials, who havebeen here assessing the airport in the light of the government's view that last week's crash of aRussian jet from Sharm El-sheikh to St. Petersburg may have been caused by a bomb onboard. This Red Sea resort worries its popularity could be shattered if the allegations provetrue.

  The BBC has learned that the British investigators in Sinai believe a bomb was put in the hold.They based their assessment on intercepted messages. Here is Ran Gardener. Investigators atthe government’s joint terrorism analysis center have spent several days assessing what couldhave caused the plane to fall out of the sky. The working assumption is that someone withaccess to the aircraft's baggage compartment was able to insert an explosive device inside oron top of the luggage shortly before the plane took off for St. Petersburg. The Britishdefense secretary Michael Fallon says that if Islamic State militants are found to have broughtdown the plane in Egypt, it will strengthen the case for carrying out British airstrikes in Syriawhere the group controls large swathes of territory. The government has deferred plans to calla voting parliament fearing that it does not yet have enough support.

  A final day of campaigning is under way in Myanmar. The opposition National League forDemocracy led by the Nobel peace prize Laureate Aung San Suu Kyi is expected to make majorgains on Sunday. She is barred from the presidency, but she has told supporters she will runthe government if the party wins. As Jonah Fisher now reports. Yesterday, she gave a pressconference here in Yangon where she said she would be above the presidency because shecannot become president, of course due to the constitution that is potentially problematicbecause the constitution stipulates the president as the highest authority in the land. Whatshe was trying to do is deliver a message to her supporters that if they vote for the NLD, theyare gonna get Ms. Suu Kyi in charge. So it was a rally in calling her supporters. But I think theremay be those certainly amongs opponents who look and then say, what do you mean morepowerful that the president, that does not really fitting with the way the constitution is set uphere.
