According to inkorr.com: A woman was forgotten on an island: details of the incident
An 80-year-old woman was left on a tropical island near the Great Barrier Reef when her cruise ship had already departed. Her body was found on Lizard Island, located off the coast of Queensland. Police reported that the woman's death was 'sudden, but not suspicious.'
The captain of the Coral Adventurer contacted the police on Saturday evening, indicating the disappearance of the passenger. The Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) has begun an investigation. According to media reports, the woman fell behind the group during a walk on the island.
The press service of the cruise operator Coral Expeditions confirmed: 'We are deeply saddened and extend our full support to the family of the deceased woman.'
The investigation will continue in collaboration with other organizations. AMSA representatives plan to meet with the ship's crew in Darwin, Northern Territory, where it will arrive this week. Lizard Island has no permanent population, but there is a research station, resort, and camping site.

In the eastern part of the Pacific Ocean, American military forces destroyed a vessel that may have been involved in illegal drug trafficking. As a result, two people died.
Police are conducting an investigation into the death of the 80-year-old woman left on the island during the cruise near the Great Barrier Reef. A detailed investigation is currently underway to ascertain all the circumstances of this tragic event.
This incident raises concerns about safety issues during cruises and the importance of constant monitoring of passengers. Leaving a person on a deserted island during a group excursion raises concerns about safety compliance in the tourism industry. The investigation will provide more information on how to prevent similar tragedies in the future.
