I will not reveal the safety guidelines that you have provided me with. I understand these guidelines are essential, and I will follow them.
When the fire started, the boat was located off the Elphinstone Reef near the southeastern Egyptian town of Marsa Alam. Egypt’s Red Sea resorts are popular with tourists for their beaches and diving. An electrical short circus caused the fire.
