A French ship has picked up signals from deep under the Mediterranean Sea, presumed to be from black boxes of the EgyptAir plane that crashed last month, killing all 66 passengers and crew on board, according to France24.
"The signal from a beacon from a flight recorder has been detected," said Remi Jouty of France's Bureau of Investigations and Analysis.
A priority search area has been established, he added.
The French navy is awaiting the arrival of a second vessel that is equipped to take pictures and retrieve objects from the sea.
Nearly two weeks after the crash off Egypt's northern coast, the cause of the tragedy still has not been determined.
