The British Ministry of Foreign Affairs expressed its support for the family affected and is in contact with the local authorities. The local police have initiated investigations into the circumstances of the incident to clarify what exactly happened. Therefore, no information about the identity of the boy or his family has been published.

The painful situation once more reminds of similar tragic incidents, which unfortunately occur again and again. Last year, a six-year-old boy drowned in a four-star hotel in a swimming pool in Mallorca. This incident also occurred in the evening when the pool area was heavily frequented. The father left his son unattended for a short time, which led to this terrible misfortune, like Hna reported.

After the boy was found, the emergency services undertook attempts to resuscitate for almost an hour, but without success. In such tragic cases, a psychologist is often consulted to support the families concerned. The Spanish police initiated investigations and arranged an autopsy to clarify the exact circumstances. This illustrates how important it is to take the safety of children in the water seriously. Drowning is one of the most common causes of accidents in children under the age of five, which is why parents should never let their children swim unattended.
