There is no definitive answer to this question as historical records do not provide an exact number of Egyptians who drowned in the Red Sea. The story of the Egyptians drowning in the Red Sea is a biblical account from the Book of Exodus, where it is said that the pursuing Egyptian army drowned when the waters closed in on them after Moses parted the sea. The event is not corroborated by historical or archaeological evidence, so any specific number would be speculative.

Moses held up his staff, and God parted the waters of the Red Sea. When the Egyptians followed them, God let the walls of waters go and the Egyptian soldiers drowned.
