as reported by the Telegraph
"American archaeologists have made the first discovery of a tomb in Egypt's Valley of the Kings since that of King Tutankhamun was uncovered in 1922, Egypt's antiquities chief announced.
The 18th-dynasty tomb included five mummies in intact sarcophagi with coloured funeral masks along with more than 20 large storage jars, sealed with pharaonic seals, said Zahi Hawass, head of the Supreme Council of Antiquities."

Reports on the EEF mailing list suggest this may be an officer's tomb rather than a king's but all very existing in any case.
