CORFU. A British couple struggled for a long time to reach the shore. The woman died; the man has minor injuries and is in shock. Tragically, their 16-year-old son, witnessed his parents’ ordeal.

The wild sea showed no mercy once again in Roda. Just like last year, on Wednesday it swept away a couple of tourists, resulting in the death of a 50-year-old woman, while her husband was pulled out injured and in a state of shock.

The two British tourists had been struggling with the waves for a long time, but it was impossible for them to reach the shore safely. Other swimmers tried to help them.

In the end, they were retrieved by members of a private medical company and firefighters who had been called to the scene.

A particularly tragic figure was the couple’s 16-year-old son, who watched helplessly as his parents fought the waves
