The #oilpipeline was providing partial bypass for the blocked-off #StraitofHormuz in the #PersianGulf, through the #RedSea. If the Houthis block the Bab al-Mandeb strait, the marine traffic between the #Meditteranean sea and the #IndianOcean through the #SuezCanal and #RedSea would be cutoff.

With this, Iran now controls a second marine choke point through their proxy. And with the oil bypass pipeline shutdown, expect the #CrudeOil prices to rise further.

“🔍 For the first time, scientists have observed seafloor spreading in real time.
Seafloor spreading is the process by which new oceanic crust is formed at mid-ocean ridges - a geological process that has shaped entire ocean basins over millions of years.
During a research expedition in the Indian Ocean, scientists had just deployed a suite of instruments when a series of earthquakes triggered a seafloor spreading event, allowing them to observe the process as it unfolded.
The findings offer rare new insights into how new oceanic crust forms and how the seafloor continues to evolve…”

“Earth’s outermost layer - the crust - is constantly renewing itself. It’s broken into giant chunks called tectonic plates that pull apart, push against or slide past one another, creating grand geologic features.
Underwater mountain ranges, or mid-ocean ridges, for instance, generally take shape where two tectonic plates are moving away from each other. Magma can then bubble up in between, solidifying and turning into new oceanic crust as part of a process called seafloor spreading. Although the phenomenon has created entire ocean basins, it remains quite mysterious because it happens so deep in the water.
Now, for the first time, scientists have observed this dynamic activity happening in real time. They describe their findings - and their stroke of luck - in a study [link above], shedding light on a mechanism that made roughly two-thirds of Earth’s crust…”

✧ cheek-lined wrasse ✧

The cheek-lined wrasse (Oxycheilinus digramma) is a species of fish in the wrasse family, Labridae. It is native to the Indian Ocean and the western Pacific Ocean, residing in coral reefs, sheltered inland areas, and lagoons, at depths from 3 to 60 metres (10 to 200 ft). Juveniles have been observed to live...

Heard a lot about recent events in #Yemen, but not much about #Socotra? We've got you covered with our new (free) supplement: "Who controls Socotra after UAE pullout?"

Thanks @hairylarry.

Yes, interesting stuff. They say it is based on the '#Maloya' (a powerful percussion-based and African-rooted style) and '#SégaLontan' (accordion-based Reunionese 'chanson') traditions from #LaReunion and #IndianOcean.
