EgyptAir crash updates: No explosion detected by U.S. spy satellites

U.S. intelligence officials are combing through satellite imagery, communications intercepts and passenger records for clues that might explain the downing of an EgyptAir jetliner in the eastern Mediterranean Sea.

Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Burbank), the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, said analysts are checking a series of classified databases.

“We are going through our intelligence holdings to determine,   do we have any images of what happened to the plane, do we have any signals intelligence; we are looking at terrorism lists,” he said in a telephone interview.
