A tourist has died after being attacked by a shark in the Red Sea off the coast of Egypt.
Human remains, which are believed to belong to a Czech tourist, were found on a beach 12 miles north of the city of Marsa Alam.
The tourist, who is thought to be in his 40s, was apparently holidaying with family, who have since returned to the Czech Republic.
The health ministry in Egypt is now coordinating with the Czech embassy to hand over the body.
The city’s council chairman, General Atef Wagdy, confirmed the death and warned that those who swim in deep waters beyond the coral are vulnerable to attack.
Four people have been killed and five others injured in shark attacks in Egypt since 2004.
In 2015 a German tourist was killed in a shark attack off the Red Sea coast.
