Currents Returning to Surface in Egypt Prompt Swimmer Drowning Warnings
The General Authority for Meteorology in Egypt has warned about the dangers of rip currents, which are among the main causes of drowning on beaches, especially during the summer when visitation increases. They stated that these currents can move at speeds of up to 2.5 meters per second, making them dangerous for swimmers even in calm conditions. Rip currents form when returning wave waters flow back into the sea through narrow passages. The relevant authorities recommend not swimming directly toward the shore when rip currents are present and instead entering the water parallel to the beach to escape them. They also emphasized the importance of adhering to official guidelines to avoid risks.
