Ship in the video is ship "Capua", Italian ship, built in 1907 in England, was initially French merchant ship.
Type: Small Italian cargo/armed vessel
Length: Approximately 45 m
Beam: Approximately 8 m
Tonnage: Around 400 tons
Sank: 17 April 1943
Depth: Approximately 34–39 m
Location: Near Cala Mazzo di Sciacca, right next to the Zingaro Nature Reserve, north of Scopello.
The "Capua" was transporting weapons from Trapani towards Tripoli. A fire broke out on board, followed by an explosion, causing the vessel to sink. The crew was rescued and reached Tonnara di Scopello.
Interestingly, parts of the ship, its holds, and even ammunition crates can still be seen, and the wreck is remarkably well preserved considering its age.
