Egyptian authorities say rescuers have found survivors after a tourist boat with forty-five people on board sank in the Red Sea.
According to the Governor of Egypt’s Red Sea province, Major General Amr Hanafi, a distress signal was received at thirty minutes past five local time from the one hundred- and forty-four-feet boat, which left port near Marsa Alam on Saturday for a diving trip with thirty-one tourists and fourteen crew.
He stated that some of the survivors found in the south of Marsa Alam have been transported by aircraft to receive medical care and that others were waiting to be picked up by an Egyptian warship.
