Recovery teams have retrieved the cockpit-voice recorder of the EgyptAir Airbus A320 which crashed in the Mediterranean Sea in mid-May.
The retrieval follows the discovery of the wreckage of the jet by a specialised vessel.
Egypt's civil aviation ministry says the recorder was retrieved in stages because it had sustained damage. But the crucial memory unit is among the sections recovered, it stresses.
Investigators are to take delivery of the recorder once it has been transferred from the vessel, the John Lethbridge of Deep Ocean Search, to the port of Alexandria.
Search teams have yet to locate the flight-data recorder from the A320 which came down while operating a Paris-Cairo service on 19 May.
