British couple missing in the Red Sea after their yacht sank while they were engaged.

The news of a British couple, along with five others, missing in the Red Sea after their tourist yacht capsized in Egypt has left the world in shock. The vessel, carrying 31 holidaymakers and 13 crew members, sank on Monday, leaving seven individuals unaccounted for. Survivors of the incident have shared their harrowing experiences of being stranded in the dark waters, with some managing to survive on air pockets until they were rescued the following day.

The families of the missing individuals are anxiously awaiting any updates on their loved ones. Among them are Jenny Cawson, 36, and her husband Tariq Sinada, 49, from Ashburton, Devon. Jenny's father, Michael Williams, described their disbelief upon hearing the news that the yacht they were on, named Sea Story, had capsized. Tariq's mother had messaged Michael, asking if he knew the name of the boat, and that's when they first learned of the tragic incident.

Jenny's mother, Pamela, shared that she recognized the name of the boat and immediately felt her heart sink. She frantically searched the news, hoping she had misread it, but unfortunately, it was true. A local source has offered to search for the missing couple in nearby hospitals, giving the family some hope in this difficult time. Pamela also mentioned that Jenny and Tariq are meticulous planners, always doing extensive research before traveling anywhere. They are both experienced scuba divers, making the situation even more devastating.

Tariq's employer, Tata Consultancy Services, released a statement expressing their concern for his safety and the safety of all the passengers on board. They are hoping for their safe return and are keeping them in their thoughts during this tragic incident. So far, 33 individuals have been rescued from the water, while four bodies have been recovered but have yet to be identified. According to the governor of the Red Sea, Amr Hanafi, the vessel capsized after being struck by a large wave.

It has also been reported that the Egyptian Meteorological Authority had issued a warning about high waves in the area before the incident occurred. They advised against any maritime activity on Sunday and Monday, but unfortunately, the warning was not heeded. The search and rescue operations are ongoing, and we can only hope for the safe return of all the missing individuals. As we wait for more updates, our thoughts are with the families of the missing and the survivors of this tragic event.
