Body parts of Russian tourist found in shark after it was beaten to death

Russian tourist Vladimir Popov, 23, has been confirmed as the victim of a shark attack near Hurghada in Egypt last week. Popov was swimming in the Red Sea with his girlfriend when he was seen in bone-chilling footage being attacked and dragged underwater by a tiger shark. Despite screams for help, other beachgoers were unable to intervene and the shark was later caught and beaten to death on the shore. Specialists examining the animal’s remains confirmed Popov’s body parts were found in its intestines. Popov’s father, Yury, said he and his son had gone to the beach to relax, adding that he considered the attack “an absolutely ridiculous coincidence”.
