According to local newspaper Al-Masry Al-Youm, the tourist submarine, named 'Sindbad', was located in the Hurghada area of the Red Sea in Egypt as it prepared to set off to give tourists a view of coral reefs.
Approximately 44 passengers of different nationalities are said to have boarded the submarine as it was stationed in front of the marina of one of the famous hotels in Hurghada today (March 27).
A rescue operation began after the submarine began to sink, with the Red Sea Health Directorate and the Egyptian Ambulance Authority reportedly placed on maximum alert and 21 ambulances dispatched to the scene, along with security and rescue forces. | |
