Shocking moment man and woman fall into the sea as brutal punch-up breaks out in Ibiza after 'Brits are asked to leave boat party'
This is the dramatic moment a man and a woman crashed into the sea during a mass brawl in the party resort of San Antonio on Ibiza.
Chaos erupted near a party boat which, according to local reports, had to suspend a scheduled excursion because of the outbreak of violence.
The fight was said to have started when a group of tourists, described as British, were asked to leave the boat before it went out to sea, local press reported.
It was not immediately clear why they had been asked to leave, or whether any arrests were later made.
Footage showed an unidentified man pushing another into the water before getting involved in another fight further along the quayside.
In the ensuing mayhem a woman described locally as the party organiser also ended up getting soaked.
She was quickly pulled out of the water by two concerned bystanders as the punch-up continued nearby.
A witness who posted the footage on TikTok titled the video: 'English people in Ibiza', adding: 'English people are so problematic.'
When asked by other social media users how she knew their nationalities, the TikTok user Marylou1313 replied: 'Because I was there.'
Another Brit joined in the conversation, insisting: 'English people are very educated, we are not all the same.' The witness replied: 'I know.'
Yesterday, footage from an explosive altercation at the popular Marco Polo hotel in the same resort made headlines.
One man was struck by a flying chair in the poolside fight and a woman was knocked unconscious.
It was not immediately clear what had led to the violence.
The footage of the hotel brawl was shared on Instagram yesterday by @sanantonioibiza.
In May an easyJet passenger branded English tourists she had to share a flight to Ibiza with as 'animals' in an angry rant at the type of holidaymakers her island is letting in.
Ibiza resident Erika Barrachina posted footage of the boisterous Brits online as she dubbed them 'scum' and insisted they shouldn't have been allowed on the plane in the first place.
In a no-holds-barred message alongside a video of the packed plane where passengers could be seen banging on luggage compartments above them and yelling, the local said: 'My flight from London to Ibiza was absolutely horrible.
'I was scared. A plane full of real English animals.
'Everyone standing, screaming, guys hitting each other, drinking bottles of alcohol one after the other and stopping the flight attendants from doing their job. Real hell.
'This video is just the end because I couldn't film what happened during the journey.
'It was a really wild 2.5 hour flight. This shouldn't be allowed. They shouldn't let scum like this get on a plane or sell alcohol on board.
'We don't want this type of tourism in Ibiza, they should stay at home.
'I had a very bad time and the flight attendants unable to do anything because how do you control this wild animals inside a plane. There has to be a solution.'
Locals in Ibiza took part in an anti-tourist demonstration on June 15.
In the march that took place in the Majorcan capital Palma 8,000 people took to the streets, although organisers put the number at 30,000.
Erika claimed the two male air stewards and an air stewardess on board had asked some passengers for their documentation but were met with shouts of 'F*** off.'
Around 100 noisy activists banging drums surrounded upmarket eatery Cappuccino Borne next to a McDonald's in the centre of Palma after their protest finished.
Police moved in to ease tension as the demonstrators held up cardboard posters reading: 'As You Come I Have To Go.'
The protestors also chanted 'The Streets Will Always Be Ours', Go Home' in English and 'No Balconing' in a reference to the young tourists who have traditionally been blamed by islanders for the dangerous practice of jumping from Magaluf hotel balconies into their swimming pools or trying to climb between balconies while under the influence of drink and drugs.
The Balearics Islands Government vice-president Antoni Costa said their behaviour had been 'unacceptable.'

Vid shows Disneyland Paris ‘wedding rehearsal' ahead of ‘marriage' of ‘confused' girl, 9, to Brit man before his arrest
Around 100 children aged five to 15, along with their families, were reportedly recruited as 'guests' DISNEY CREEP Vid shows Disneyland Paris 'wedding rehearsal' ahead of 'marriage' of 'confused' girl, 9, to Brit man before his arrest CREEPY footage has emerged of an alleged mock "wedding" between a British man and a nine-year-old girl at Disneyland Paris. A video released by French network BFM TV shows around 100 guests seated during the £111,000 ceremony in front of the iconic Sleeping Beauty castle. Advertisement 7 Guests at the twisted mock 'wedding rehearsal' in front of Disneyland Paris' Sleeping Beauty castle Credit: 7 Lavish decorations are seen including flowers and a grand cake 7 The park rented out the iconic castle grounds to the organisers under the belief it was a genuine wedding Credit: Alamy Guests are seen waiting for what they had reportedly been told would be 'a chic and elegant' wedding rehearsal. In the video filmed on Saturday at dawn, a flower-covered stage, lavish décor, a grand cake and musicians can be seen. But what they witnessed next would leave them horrified - appearing on stage as the 'bride' was a nine-year-old girl. The child, reportedly of Ukrainian nationality, was carried out as she could not walk in the extravagant bridal dress. Advertisement Disney staff immediately called police upon spotting a "scared and confused" child in a big dress with four-inch heels taped to her feet, reports French newspaper Le Parisien. Disneyland Paris was reportedly deceived about the nature of the event, as reported by The Sun earlier today. The park said it had rented out the grounds of the Sleeping Beauty Castle under the impression that a genuine wedding rehearsal would take place - not an event involving a minor. The event cost the organisers $130,000 (£111,000), BFM reported. Advertisement The organiser is said to have assumed the "identity of a Latvian national", using "false documents to secure the conclusion of the contract for privatising the park", BFM TV reports. According to Le Parisien, the man, 22, had presented himself "as a future Irish groom living in Germany". French cops confirm husband killed wife then took own life in horror murder-suicide at holiday home Cops are said to have immediately arrested the "groom", who later insisted that the purpose of the ceremony was to create a video for social media. But Disney staff said recording is strictly forbidden, adding that "the man may have devised this subterfuge to obtain images of the park". Advertisement The girl's 41-year-old mother, reportedly Ukrainian, was also arrested. She said she wanted her daughter to feel like a Disney "princess" for the day, according to DW News. 200 adult guests and 100 children aged five to 15 were said to have been recruited online through ads describing a "chic and elegant" "rehearsal" wedding, Le Parisien reported. They were allegedly paid €200 each and told to "enter the room, sit down, stand up, applaud and participate naturally and elegantly in this event filmed in a festive and classy atmosphere". Advertisement A statement issued by the prosecutor's office in the local town of Meaux read: "Four people were arrested and questioned: the groom, who was believed to be the organiser of the event and is presumed to be British and aged 22; the mother of the child, a 41-year-old Ukrainian woman; and two Latvian nationals aged 55 and 24." A 55-year-old man claimed he was hired to play the role of the "bride's" dad for 12,000 euros (£10,266) - and only discovered her age at the event, local news reports. The prosecutor's statement added that "police custody of the British suspect and a Latvian national was also extended on charges of fraud and money laundering". A criminal investigation has been opened, according to the prosecutor's office. Advertisement It added that a medical examination confirmed the child had not suffered any violence. 7 The man posing as the 'groom' claimed he was the director of a production company and they were shooting a video Credit: Instagram 7 A guest said they were left utterly 'stunned' when they realised the bride was a child Credit: Officials say they are still trying to understand the nature of the event. Advertisement The man posing as the "groom" claimed that he was the director of a production company and that they were shooting a video, a police source told Le Parisien. A witness, who said they had been a guest at the event, told the newspaper: "We all thought we were going to attend a wedding... "Everyone was stunned, no one expected it. Disneyland did things very well. "They cancelled everything as soon as they realized the bride was a child. We were shocked to see that." Advertisement Witness Yeleen, who attended the ceremony as a guest with her daughter, said: "I saw a little girl dressed in white. "I saw her hair prepared with curls and a lady picking her up in her arms. "At that moment, I was shocked. I realised when I saw the child. It was atrocious." The prosecutor's office said: "So it wasn't a wedding, but a staged wedding filmed with around a hundred extras. Advertisement "They privatised Disneyland Paris, pretending it was a real wedding." They are set to appear before a judge at Meaux judicial court on Monday as part of a formal judicial investigation. 7 The iconic Sleeping Beauty Castle Credit: AFP 7 Around 12 million tourists are said to visit Disneyland Paris each year Credit: Alamy

British man arrested for fake wedding to nine-year-old at Disneyland
A British man has been arrested at Disneyland Paris after allegedly trying to stage a fake wedding to a nine-year-old girl. The theme park had been privately hired for the ceremony early on Saturday morning before it was open to the public, at a reported cost of €130,000 (£111,140). However, police were called after staff realised that the bride, a Ukrainian national who was wearing a wedding dress and reportedly tottering on high heels, appeared to be a young child. They believed that it could have been an illegal child marriage. The suspected instigator, believed to be British, played the role of the groom after 'being professionally made up to look completely different from himself', said Jean-Baptiste Bladier, a public prosecutor in Meaux. Police were still working to formally identify the suspect, Mr Bladier added. Alexandre Verney, the assistant prosecutor for the Seine-et-Marne department, said: 'The event turned out to be a staged event, with the guests themselves extras [invited to be part of the stunt]. 'It wasn't a wedding, but a staged wedding filmed with around a hundred extras. They hired Disneyland Paris, pretending it was a real wedding.' It was to be ''filmed privately' and broadcast on social media', added Mr Bladier. According to Le Parisien, which first reported the incident, a man hired the Disneyland Paris complex, which is the most visited theme park in Europe, several weeks earlier. 'Day worthy of a princess' The girl's mother reportedly told investigators that she wanted to organise a 'day worthy of a princess' for her daughter. Staff were astonished when the nine-year-old appeared on Saturday morning, barely able to stand in stilettos, and they alerted the authorities, the French newspaper reported. The man who organised the event had reportedly submitted false documents concerning his identity, and Disneyland filed a complaint. A witness told Le Parisien: 'We were not told at any time that it was about a film shoot. We all thought we were going to be part of a wedding. 'Everyone was stunned. No one expected this. Disneyland does things very well. They immediately cancelled when they understood that the bride was a kid. We were sickened by that.' The investigations, including a medical examination of the nine-year-old 'bride', found that 'she had not been subjected to any violence or coercive acts', the prosecutor's office said. Four people were arrested on Saturday: the suspected British organiser and fake groom, a 24-year-old Latvian woman who helped organise the event and played the role of the bride's fake sister, the child's 41-year-old mother and a 55-year-old Latvian man who was recruited to play a role in the ceremony. On Sunday evening, only the first two suspects were still in custody, the other two having been released without charge. 'Organiser misrepresented himself' According to the Meaux prosecutor's office, Disneyland Paris was deceived as 'the organiser misrepresented himself as a Latvian national and used false documents to obtain the contract for the privatisation of the park'. It added: 'With all charges relating to harm to the minor having been dismissed, the prosecutor's office said it would request charging the two individuals with 'fraud and breach of trust to the detriment of Disneyland Paris, which has also filed a complaint to this effect'.' The office said it would request that they be placed under judicial supervision. The alleged organiser and the bride's 'sister' are due to appear before an investigating judge on Monday. The Meaux public prosecutor's office said it would request that they be placed under judicial supervision. It said that the nine-year-old and her mother 'do not usually stay in France and had arrived in the country two days earlier'. The mother was released without charge along with the 55-year-old Latvian who had alerted staff to the subterfuge. Mr Bladier said: 'He explained that he had been hired to play the role of the bride's father for €12,000 (£10,000) and had discovered at the last minute that she was nine years old.' In a statement, Disneyland Paris said while it had received payment for the event, it was 'immediately cancelled' by its teams 'after significant irregularities were identified'.

Qatar temporarily closes airspace amid rising tensions in Middle East
The move comes after US forces struck three nuclear sites in Iran, prompting Tehran to launch a barrage of retaliatory ballistic missiles against Israel. In a statement posted to social media on Monday, the Qatari Ministry of Foreign Affairs said: 'Qatari authorities announce the temporary suspension of air traffic in the country's airspace, in order to ensure the safety of citizens, residents, and visitors.' Qatar Airways has been contacted for comment on the impact to its operations. Airlines are reviewing routes across the region, with some services rerouted or diverted mid-air. It comes just hours after the Foreign Office advised British nationals in Qatar to 'shelter in place' following a US security alert. The UK Foreign Office is advising against all travel to Iran and urges British nationals in the region to follow local guidance. It has also updated its travel advice for Qatar, warning British nationals to shelter in place 'out of an abundance of caution' following a US security alert in the country. In updated guidance, it said: 'Following a US security alert for US nationals in Qatar, out of an abundance of caution, we recommend that British nationals in Qatar shelter in place until further notice. 'Follow instructions from local authorities. 'The FCDO is in contact with local authorities and international partners, and will provide further updates as the situation develops.' Qatar is home to Al Udeid airbase, the largest US military installation in the Middle East, where around 8,000 American personnel are based, according to the US State Department. The base also hosts British forces. No. 83 Expeditionary Air Group, part of the Royal Air Force, is headquartered at Al Udeid and leads UK air operations in the region. On Monday, flight-tracking data from Flightradar24 showed a Qatar Airways service from Gatwick to Doha make a sharp diversion shortly before entering Qatari airspace.
