伊朗漏油扩散，形成20英里油污带
Read, Watch or Listen
Satellite imagery has confirmed a large oil spill originating near Iran’s Kharg Island export terminal in the Persian Gulf, emerging between May 6 and May 8. Analysts estimate roughly 80,000 barrels of crude have formed a slick covering about 20 square miles. Kharg Island handles around 90% of Iran’s oil exports, making the incident both an ecological and strategic concern. Experts warn the slick could drift toward the coasts of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, or the United Arab Emirates within days or weeks, threatening desalination plants, water supplies, and marine ecosystems. The cause remains unclear but may involve damage to aging infrastructure.
