JAKARTA - A 12-year-old Ukrainian boy lost his hand and an Egyptian tour guide also lost his leg in a recent shark attack on the Sharm el-Sheikh resort on Egypt's Red Sea, according to authorities.
The incident took place on Sunday, October 25, when the boy and his mother were snorkeling with a tour guide.
They then met a two-meter long oceanic whitetip (cowboy shark), the Environment Ministry said in a statement.
The victims were taken to the hospital for emergency treatment. The mother suffered a deep bite wound, while her child was in the intensive care unit (ICU), amputated a part of the body below the elbow. Meanwhile, the tour guide lost his leg as a result of the incident.
The ministry decided to stop all human activities around the dive site. News reports say underwater video footage near the scene shows the shark's unusual behavior by attacking humans.
