Oil spill off Oman stretches far
Greenpeace reports that an oil spill off the coast of Oman covers approximately 500 square miles and has spread across multiple areas. The spill resulted from an oil leak following the grounding of a vessel in the Arabian Sea. The ship, which was carrying around 800,000 barrels of oil, is believed to be part of a Russian fleet operating under sanctions. The incident occurred on June 21, after the ship ran aground on June 6. It is thought that an explosion onboard the vessel may have been one of the causes of the accident. Rescue efforts are being hampered by monsoon winds.
