NEWS… BUT NOT AS YOU KNOW IT
A team of researchers made a truly horrific discovery while investigating a fatal shark attack at a hugely popular resort for tourists.
A new BBC documentary which airs on Tuesday night explores the rise in attacks despite sharp decline in shark population.
While making the programme in June 2023, a Russian tourist was mauled to death by a tiger shark in the Red Sea just meters from the shore in front of his father.
On July 2, 2022, not far from the recent attack, Sahl Hasheesh resort was bustling with tourists, with hundreds splashing in the sea when Elisabeth Sauer, 68, was snorkelling in shallow water less than two meters deep when she was bitten.
