A second woman has died in a brutal shark attack in Egypt that killed another swimmer. It was revealed yesterday that an Austrian woman had her arm and leg savagely ripped off while swimming in the Red Sea.
The horrific moment the 68-year-old woman try to swim back to shore was captured in footage showing the water turning red from her blood. Tragically she died afterwards from nervous shock in an ambulance in Sahl Hasheesh, south of Hurghada, say reports.
Now the Egyptian authorities have admitted that a second woman, a tourist, was killed around the same time in the Red Sea around 650ft from the other fatal attack, the Mirror reports. Her lifeless body was pulled out of the sea after being located on a reef, according to eyewitnesses.
Her identity and nationality have not been revealed but she was believed to have been staying at adult-only Premiere Le Reve five star hotel. The same unnamed Russian tourist who filmed the aftermath of the first attack posted a new video showing the location of the second fatal incident.
Using his finger to explain, he said: "This is a small lagoon where we saw [the shark] for the first time. And we didn't realise it was a shark. The attack I filmed [earlier] was here" - he points towards the pier - "And the body of the second woman was pulled out approximately here."
The beach was deserted in the wake of the deaths. Hundreds of tourists had seen the first attack on the Austrian woman who had been snorkelling, wearing flippers when she was attacked in the water.
They complained there were no lifeguards as swimmers fled the sea. The Russian witness said: "I saw the shark turning and twisting the woman in the water. I didn't manage to film it, but she was twisted in the water."
