Tragedy struck after a shark attacked and ate a tourist swimming with his father on a beach in Hurghada, Egypt’s Red Sea.

The photos were taken by some of the nearby ships, which were unable to do anything to save his life.

In the video, the man was swimming at the edge of the Dream Beach Sheraton when he was suddenly startled by the animal, which began attacking him.

When the fin of a large shark appeared next to him, the boy began to move without a fixed direction.

The victim, a 23-year-old man who was on vacation with his father, could even be heard shouting “daddy, daddy” until the water turned completely red.

“Oh my God!” another tourist can be heard shouting.
The man remained motionless, and the lifeboat had just arrived when the shark reappeared, but it was too late to save his life.

“A Russian citizen died in a shark attack,” TASS said, citing Viktor Voropayev, Russia’s consul general in Hurghada.

The same news source later identified the victim as ‘V. Popov’.
