And the governorate decided to gradually return to activity in all regions, north and south, except for the accident area (specifically the Sheraton Shaab area, the old Sheraton area, and even the Sinbad area), where the decision to close it will be adhered to, in order to review the organizational procedures for users in these sites and to ensure that security and safety standards are followed to serve beachgoers.

The Egyptian authorities are studying a plan to prevent the recurrence of the accident and to avoid the arrival of predatory sharks to the Red Sea beaches.

Egyptian sources revealed to Al Arabiya.net that Major General Amr Hanafi, the governor of the Red Sea, is currently studying with the Tourism Investment Association to oblige hotels to set fishing nets with specific specifications determined by the specialized committees, at specific distances within the waters on various beaches.

The nets aim to impede the arrival of sharks to the beaches and places of residence of citizens and tourists in the sea water, in order to preserve lives and to ensure that the shark incident will not recur, in addition to broadcasting a message of reassurance among beachgoers.
