After a cruise ship crashed into a pier in Sharm el-Sheikh, an Egyptian Red Sea resort, three people on board were killed. The crash occured during a windy storm, common along the coast. The ship, the Costa Europa entered the Sinai resort in Safaga. Two Indians and a Brazilian died and four others were injured. Due to the storm many ports were closed along with several road. The direct cause of the accident was not determined.
This event is globally important, especially because the cause is not determined, because a country can either create a bad reputation if the event is their fault or other countries can blame them if their nationality died or was injured in the event. Because this event does not have a confirmed cause it is not a very important national event. If more people had died in the event the global importance would increase as well as the focus on the cause of the accident and especially who caused it.

There is a lot of tension between countries presently. Countries would probably like someone to blame for this incident.
