A sightseeing balloon carrying foreign tourists over the southern Egyptian city of Luxor has crash-landed, killing one tourist and injuring seven others.
Officials said Friday’s incident was caused by strong winds, which forced the balloon off course above the city’s historic temples and tombs.
The nationalities of the victims were not immediately known.
There have been other incidents involving hot-air balloons over ancient Luxor.
In 2013, 19 foreign tourists were killed when their balloon caught fire.
In 2016, Egypt temporarily halted balloon flights after 22 Chinese tourists suffered minor injuries in a crash-landing.
Since then, balloon rides have been monitored by cameras and banned from flying above 2,000m (6,562ft).
