CAIRO, Jan. 5 (Xinhua) -- At least one tourist was killed and seven others wounded when a hot air balloon crashed near Egypt's ancient city of Luxor on Friday, state-run Ahram reported.

The balloon was carrying around 20 people including travellers from different countries.

A U.S. citizen was killed in the accident, while the nationalities of the injured were not revealed.

The incident was caused by strong winds that forced the balloon to fall down, an official was quoted as saying.

Luxor has witnessed hot air balloon accidents in past years.

In 2013, 19 tourists, including nine from Hong Kong of China, were killed when their balloon caught fire.

In 2016, 22 Chinese tourists were injured when their balloon crash landed, after which Egypt temporarily halted balloon rides.
