The subsequent raid on the aircraft by Egyptian troops resulted in 60 deaths, including two terrorists. 22-year-old terrorist leader Omar Mohammed Ali Rezaq, who was injured during the storming of the aircraft, had removed his hood and ammunition and pretended to be an injured passenger. Egyptian commandos tracked Rezaq to St. Luke's General Hospital and, holding the doctors and medical staff at gunpoint, entered the casualty ward looking for him. Rezaq was arrested when some of the passengers in the hospital recognized him.
