A 41-year-old tourist from Rome has died from a heart attack at the Scala dei Turchi beach in Sicily. She was on vacation with her brother when she suddenly fell ill and went into cardiac arrest. Rescue services were called and tried to revive her, but she was airlifted to the hospital in critical condition and later died. This is the second death in two days in Sicily, following a man who died while swimming in a small dock. Just a week ago, a Swiss tourist also died while swimming off the coast of the Aeolian Islands.
