Shark attack in Red Sea
Egypt, Local, 8/15/1997
The Red Sea is regarded by oceanologists as a shark-infested area, but there are few reports of people on Egyptian beaches being attacked by the creatures.
Recently a shark attacked a fishing boat, killing 16-year-old fisherman Ayman Abul Hassan and severely injuring his friend, Nagah Attallah El-Sayed.
The two fishermen were fishing 150 meters away from the Red Sea port of Safaga when the shark attacked them yesterday.
Experts said that the incident was unlikely to effect tourism in the area as it was the first9 and hopefully the last9shark attack, an official source said.
