A high-profile delegation of the Egyptian popular diplomacy will visit Moscow within days to offer condolences to the families of the victims who were killed on board the Russian plane that crashed over Sinai in October 31, the Independence Current said on Thursday.

In a statement, head of the Independence Current Ahmed Fadaly said the Egyptian delegation's visit to Russia comes to confirm the depth and strong relations binding Egypt and Russia.

The delegation will try to strengthen bilateral strategic relations and work on restoring the Russian tourism movement to Egypt, he added.

Also, the delegation members will inform the Russian political leadership that Egypt backs the Russian policy in the Middle East region, including its fight against Daesh and other terrorist groups in Syria.
