Egyptian authorities say five people aboard a tourist boat that sank in the Red Sea and left four dead on Monday, Nov. 25, have now been rescued. In a translated statement on Wednesday, Nov. 27, the Egyptian Armed Forces said that nine people have been found from the Nov. 25 disaster.

Egyptian media reported that those aboard the yacht, which sank following warnings of rough seas, included two Americans.

Sea Story, a live-aboard used mainly for maritime activities, sent a distress signal after a large wave crashed into the boat, causing it to capsize.
