A powerful storm swept across Cyprus, leaving one person dead and six others rescued after three boats sank in rough seas. The man was pulled unconscious from the water near Cape Greco and later pronounced dead at the hospital, according to Reuters. Two others were treated for injuries sustained during the disaster.
Three Boats Hit Rocks During Violent Storm
Heavy rain and strong winds battered the Mediterranean island as the storm intensified. Three boats struck rocks and sank off Cyprus's coast, triggering a major rescue operation. A rescue helicopter pulled the unconscious man from the sea near Cape Greco, but he could not be saved, Reuters reported.
Widespread Damage From Flooding and High Winds
The storm caused significant damage across the island beyond the maritime disaster. Heavy flooding swept through coastal and inland areas. Strong winds toppled trees and caused landslides in several locations, creating hazardous conditions for residents and disrupting daily life across Cyprus.
Rescue Teams Save Six From Sinking Vessels
In addition to the one fatality, six people were successfully rescued from the three sunken boats. Two of the rescued individuals required hospital treatment for their injuries. The rescue operation demonstrated the rapid response of emergency crews who deployed a helicopter to reach victims in the dangerous sea conditions.
