Organisations warn of Oman oil spill risk
Two non-governmental organizations have warned of an imminent environmental disaster following an oil spill off the southern coasts of the Sultanate of Oman, after a oil tanker laden with one million barrels of Russian oil ran aground within a protected maritime area. Satellite images indicate that the spill is extensive, and the vessel remains stranded, increasing the risk of broader pollution. It is believed that the tanker is part of the Russian shadow fleet, which employs outdated ships, raising concerns about safety standards. Predictions suggest that ongoing leakage could cause significant deterioration of the marine and coastal environment in the region.
