A foreign tourist died and another was injured in a shark attack in the Red Sea off the Egyptian coast, Egypt’s environment ministry said. “Two foreigners were attacked by a shark in the area of Marsa Alam, injuring one and killing the other,” the ministry said in a statement. The nationality of the victims was not specified. The area has been cordoned off and swimming there is prohibited for the next two days. The ministry clarified that the incident occurred in deep water, outside the zone used for swimming. The Red Sea coast is an important tourist area for the Egyptian economy. The appearance of sharks is not rare in this marine area, but there are rarely attacks on swimmers and those at a great distance from the shores. In June 2023, a Russian tourist died in a shark attack off Hurghada in the Red Sea. Source: RES
