Remains of EgyptAir Flight 804 May Have Just Been Found
BRIANNA KEILAR, CNN GUEST ANCHOR: We are back now with breaking news just in to CNN. We are getting word that the remains of EgyptAir flight 804 may have just been found. Airbus has just detected signals from the Mediterranean Sea where EgyptAir flight 804 crashed last week. This is coming to us from Egyptian state media. And this means, this news means that the search grid has just narrowed dramatically. It's gotten so much smaller. And I want to go live now to Cairo and Nic Robertson. He is our CNN international diplomatic editor. And so Nic, to be clear here, these signals are not coming from the black boxes? What do we know?</s>NIC ROBERTSON, CNN INTERNATIONAL DIPLOMATIC EDITOR: Well, we know that two days ago Egyptian officials were talking of a search area the size of Connecticut. Now they are talking of a search area of a circle, a diameter, radius rather at about miles. So hugely shrinking the search area. What the head of the investigation here in Egypt has told state television is that he was contacted by airbus and airbus told him they picked up a signal from the ELT, the Emergency Location Transmitter. Now, there are three of these on board an airbus A-320. They are designed to trigger and start sending out signals on impact. What is interesting here is that normally the batteries on these devices last only 48 hours. And here we are seven days later getting this information. But it -- but regardless of how long it's taken to get this information, it does for the investigators narrow the search. Means they can start dropping in those acoustic detection devices into the sea now to try to listen for the beacons that are being transmitted by the black boxes. So this is a major step forward for the investigators right now.</s>KEILAR: All right, Nic. We will be following that with you. Nic Robertson for us in Cairo. Thank you so much. Next, he has done it. Donald Trump has completed his improbable trek to the Republican nomination. He has reached that magic number of 1,237. But instead of Hillary Clinton Donald Trump says he'll debate Bernie Sanders if 10 million goes to charity. Stay with me.
