Omani Agency Reports Oil Spill at Ras Madheka
Efforts to monitor the repercussions of the grounded ship "Caroline Pezengy" incident along the Omani coasts continue. The oil spill has contaminated the coastline over a stretch of up to 40 kilometers from Ras Al Madkhara, with the possibility of affecting an area between 10 and 20 kilometers around Masirah Island. The Oman Environmental Authority confirmed that quantities of oil have reached the mainland, amidst obstacles caused by the monsoon winds, which have been hindering rescue operations since June. Specialized teams are continuing to monitor and track oil slicks, with a call to the community, fishermen, and citizens to avoid approaching the contaminated areas and to report any sightings. Meanwhile, authorities are taking decisive measures to minimize the environmental damage caused by the oil pollution.
