Cameron offers condolences to Putin over crash

British Prime Minister David Cameron tells Russian President Vladimir Putin that Britain shares the “pain and grief” of the Russian people after the crash of a Russian passenger jet in Egypt.

Cameron’s office says he spoke with Putin on Sunday morning and offered to aid the investigation into the cause of the crash Saturday that killed all 224 people on the Metrojet charter flight from Sharm el-Sheikh to St. Petersburg.

Cameron’s office says Putin thanked him for the offer but that Russian investigators were already at the crash site in Sinai. They are working with Egyptian, French, German and Airbus investigators.
