Tragedy Strikes Rhine: 19-Year-Old Perishes in Water
In a tragic incident that took place on the night of Saturday to Sunday (27 July), a 19-year-old Syrian went missing in the Rhine river. The incident occurred at Paradise Beach in Düsseldorf, where the young man was swimming when he was swept away by the powerful currents.
The exact whereabouts of the missing individual are currently unknown. The Düsseldorf police, the water police, and two fireboats have been searching the Rhine for the missing person but have not found him yet.
The Rhine, known for its picturesque landscapes, can be a deadly hazard, not a refreshing swim. Its unpredictable nature, characterized by currents, whirlpools, boat traffic, and suddenly dropping riverbanks, can put anyone in life-threatening danger, regardless of swimming experience.
Witnesses called the Düsseldorf police and the water police regarding the missing person. Two witnesses attempted to rescue the young man but were unable due to the strong current. The missing person was reported to have been swept under the water at Paradise Beach.
The safety of swimmers, their children, and potential rescuers is at risk in the Rhine. The water police strongly advise against swimming in the Rhine due to its dangerous conditions. The Rhine is potentially life-threatening for those who bathe in it, and the incident serves as a stark reminder of the importance of responsible behaviour.
The search for the missing individual in the Rhine continues without success. Our thoughts are with the family and friends of the missing 19-year-old Syrian during this difficult time.
