The Minister state of Antiquities, Mohamed Ibrahim said that a new discovery in the Valley of the Kings will be announced within few days. Is it the long waited for KV64 that Dr. Zahi Hawass was talking about how close to unearth it soon for at least 3 years?
In January 2011, Dr. Zahi Hawass said “We found some indication that this tomb could be for Ankhesenamun, the Queen of Tutankhamun,”

We will keep you updated ...

It's just a buried shaft on the left hand side as you approach the tomb of Thutmose III and does not contain anything important ,the Egyptian mission started working in it before , Swiss Mission captured it on the site and claimed ownership of the find some time ago

I look forward to more news on this discovery! I would love to see something there when I am there in March 2012.
