The other twin survived along with her husband Alexander. 

The pair are in hospital. 

A total of six Russian tourists, including Lyudmila’s two children, died in the horror in Hurghada when bathyscaphe Sindbad bank as 45 tourists were boarding.

The bodies of those who perished are still believed to be inside the stricken submarine. 

It sank as water poured into it as it was loading passengers with its hatches open.

Lyudmila had moved to Russia from Berdychiv, Zhytomyr region, in Ukraine, around  a decade ago.

She was a music teacher and accompanist at the Vyborg School of Arts, and was in the Red Sea resort on a family holiday.

The tragedy happened when the submarine sank as passengers were boarding. 

Seven Russian tourists – five of them children – remain in hospital. 

Lyudmila’s family is the second known to have been devastated by the Egyptian tourism horror.

The Russian authorities today confirmed that anaesthetist Dr Ravil Valiullin, 40, a father of two, was killed in the tragedy. 

He was on the Hurghada vessel with his wife Dr Kristina Valiullina, 39, and their daughters – aged ten and 15 – were on board  the bathyscaphe, and survived. 

His wife was initially reported dead due to an error on victims by the Egyptian authorities. 

In fact, she survived and is now in hospital with their daughters.

Ravel was reportedly an avid Liverpool FC supporter. 

Like his wife, he worked  at the Urussu Central Regional Hospital in the Russian region Tatarstan. 

Russian Channel 5 reported: “The main version of the tragedy is considered to be an error by the crew of the submarine, although issues regarding the technical condition of the bathyscaphe and the organisation of tourist dives are also being considered. 

“Following the incident, the Egyptian authorities imposed a temporary ban on all excursions using submarines.”
