Topping coverage of Egypt in the foreign press this morning is a rare shark attack off the Red Sea coast in Sharm El Sheikh on Sunday, which cost an Egyptian tour guide a leg and a 12-year-old Ukrainian boy an arm, reports the Associated Press. The boy’s mother also sustained light injuries in the attack.
