Hillary Clinton on Thursday suggested that an act of terrorism is responsible for the Egyptian plane that went missing.

“It does appear that it was an act of terrorism,” Clinton told CNN’s Chris Cuomo. “Exactly how, of course, the investigation will have to determine.”


Clinton added that it “shines a very bright light” on threats the world faces from organized terrorist groups, including the Islamic State.
