An estimated oil spill off the western coast of Kharg Island, potentially comprising over 3,000 barrels and spreading across more than 20 square miles, has raised concerns about environmental impacts and the vulnerability of Iran's aging oil infrastructure amid U.S. sanctions and regional conflicts, with various possible causes including a ruptured pipeline and the risk of deliberate discharge due to storage constraints. #OilSpill #EnvironmentalCrisis #MarineEcosystems #IR #SA
