스쿠버 탱크 폭발 2명 사망
AN exploding scuba diving tank killed two Polish tourists and seriously injured two others overnight on a Croatian island, officials said.
The first victim on the southern island of Vis was a 48-year-old Polish woman who died on the spot, a police spokeswoman said.
"The diving tank exploded while it was being unloaded from a boat on the coast in the port of Komiza," the transport and sea ministry said.
The cause of the blast was most likely a valve that popped out, it said.
Three other injured tourists - two men and a woman - were immediately transported to a hospital in the coastal town of Split on the mainland.
One of them, a 43-year-old man who sustained a head injury, died in the hospital overnight, its surgical department said.
The victims were in a group of 12 Polish tourists who arrived in Komiza to go scuba diving, the ministry said.
Croatia, which has a population of 4.4 million, attracts more than 10 million tourists each year, who mainly visit the country's Adriatic coast.
