Shark Alert | M6 | 66 minutes

One woman tourist dead and two others seriously wounded. For several weeks, sharks have been spreading panic at Sharm El Sheikh in Egypt. Set on the shores of the Red Sea, this resort was a magnet for many divers wishing to observe the sharks that are so numerous in the region. Bathing has been banned on the hotel beaches and a fresh alarm was sounded this weekend. Why have the sharks, normally inoffensive, suddenly taken to attacking swimmers? Why have they come right in close to the beaches? How are the local authorities attempting, despite it all, to salvage the tourist season? An investigation into this new version of “Jaws”.
