Greenpeace Reports Growing Oil Spill in Strait of Hormuz
An alarming oil spill has expanded in the Strait of Hormuz, covering an area of approximately 400 square kilometers as of September 10. The pollution is concentrated on the eastern side of the strait. The likely source is the spilled oil from the "Resco" tanker, which was observed near the contaminated area. It is believed that the leak began around September 8, probably after the U.S. military attacked the vessel and other tankers associated with Iran amid escalating tensions in the region, following repeated attacks on oil tankers. The arrival of oil on the coast poses a serious environmental threat, including to sea turtle habitats and important fishing areas.
