The Egyptian navy and army are currently involved in the search operation, regional governor Amr Hanafi said.

A tourist boat capsized off the coast of the Red Sea near the resort of Marsa Alam on Monday. There were 45 people on board: 14 crew and 31 tourists. At least 16 people have been rescued, while the search for others is still ongoing. This was reported by Reuters in connection with local authorities.

The Sea Story boat left Port Ghalib on Sunday morning for a multi-day diving cruise.

The ship was found to have crashed near a resort on the western coast of the Red Sea. After that, contact with him was lost.

Some of the passengers were rescued by a helicopter. The Egyptian navy and army are currently involved in the search operation, regional governor Amr Hanafi said.

Known for its coral reefs and rich marine life, the Red Sea is a popular diving spot.

We remind you that a 50-meter sailing ship with 22 people on board sank off the coast of Palermo (Sicily).

It was previously reported that a boat carrying Haitian migrants caught fire at sea near Haiti – 39 people died, and another 41 were rescued.
