Kuwaiti team recovers fishing nets in Areefjan
The Kuwaiti Diving Team, affiliated with the Environmental Volunteer Foundation, successfully recovered large quantities of abandoned fishing nets ("ghost nets") that were trapped in the coral reefs at the Areefjan site. These nets weighed approximately a quarter of a ton and were located at a depth of 12 meters. This operation is part of the team's ongoing efforts to clean Kuwait’s waters and protect the marine environment. Removing abandoned nets helps reduce suffocation that leads to the destruction of coral reefs, improves navigational safety, and prevents the drowning of marine life. The area is considered a vital zone, home to coral reefs and an old shipwreck. The team emphasizes the importance of preserving the marine environment through sustainable projects and regular activities to clear debris. They also call on sea visitors to report any trapped nets to help prevent environmental and navigational damage.
