Do you have a source for this information? Is it from a Ministry of Antiquities press release? Thanks very much for the updates, even though it's very sad news.

As a legitimate publication we can't publish anything without having a reliable source with documents to prove it or if we republishing information that was published somewhere else so we have to refer to the source. In this case the source is Ministry of Antiquities and the Minister's announcement. We are sorry about the sad news.
