Abbasieh:
Not much information has been found concerning the sinking of the Abbasieh. What is known is that she was an Egyptian sailing vessel of 140 tons and that on 22 August 1918, she was captured by a submarine (Nationality not known), and was subsequently sank by gunfire approximately 100 miles Northeast from Alexandria. If you can provide any additional details on this vessel and its sinking please send me an e-mail at "info@shipwrecksofegypt.com". Your assistance would be greatly appreciated!
