Five people have been rescued after an Egyptian tourist yacht capsized in the Red Sea on Monday. A military-led rescue team found two Belgians, one Swiss national, one Finnish tourist and one Egyptian alive on Tuesday after more 30 hours at sea.

Sea Story, a live-aboard used mainly for maritime activities, sent a distress signal after a large wave crashed into the boat, causing it to capsize.

Four bodies were recovered and five survivors rescued from the water 24 hours after a yacht sank in the Red Sea when it got caught in rough weather.The number of survivors now stands at 33 – including 28 who were rescued on Monday – with seven people still missing amid a major search operation led by Egyptian naval forces.
