Four tankers were apparently struck or disabled by the U.S. forces near Iran’s Jask area.
Satellite imagery shows one tanker on fire and extensive oil spills, including leaks from two tankers, with another spill detected about 7.4 kilometers from the anchorage site.
Trump's war is causing the biggest environmental disaster in modern history.
This is so infuriating.

🛢️🌑 Satellites viennent de repérer une marée noire géante près du hub pétrolier de Kharg, en Iran, en plein blocus naval US. Pendant qu’on joue à la guerre de l’énergie, le Golfe persique se transforme en poubelle toxique. Kharg n’est plus seulement un choke point géopolitique, c’est un Tchernobyl pétrolier au ralenti.

"Imperial Oil says there have been no reported effects to wildlife or open waterbodies from a pipeline leak of crude bitumen in eastern Alberta."
"Reported." 🤔
Wildlife and water bodies have not reported in...I guess.
"843,000 litres of fluid leaked from the pipeline, with about 172,000 litres of it being crude bitumen and 671,000 litres produced water. Produced water can be contaminated with salt, oil or other substances."
Meanwhile, Cold Lake First Nations is advising community members to avoid the area. The company has not done that, the community is keeping itself safe. Posted on CLFN Facebook.
"Snow fencing has also been placed around the perimeter to restrict wildlife access and act as a bird deterrent, it (Imperial) said."
"Snow fencing." 🤣
Imperial did not report the leak on its website or on its locally-focused Cold Lake operations Facebook page.

Hartl said that boats would no longer be required to run at lower speeds to reduce the number of collisions with the #whales, which are only found in the #GulfOfMexico.
There are currently only about 51 #RicesWhales left, acc/to the Center for Biological Diversity. The population collapsed following the 2010 #DeepwaterHorizon explosion at a #BP operated #oil rig, which resulted in the largest-ever #marine #OilSpill.
