Satellite images show likely oil slick off Iran’s Kharg Island

Satellite images have detected a significant oil slick, estimated to cover dozens of square kilometers, in the waters near Iran's Kharg Island. The images, captured recently, indicate a substantial spill in a critical oil shipping region. Kharg Island is a major oil terminal for Iran, making this incident potentially impactful for regional energy infrastructure and the environment. The exact cause and origin of the slick are not yet confirmed, but its proximity to the island suggests a possible link to oil operations or transit. Further investigation is likely to determine the source and extent of the pollution.
