#Oman, in its first public disclosure on the #environmental impact, said on Monday it was seeking to tackle the #OilSpill near the #HallaniyatIslands.
Oman's Sultan Haitham bin Tarik issued a royal decree last year creating a #NatureReserve around the islands, an area that is home to #wildlife including #ArabianSea #HumpbackWhales & #SocotraCormorants.

Leaking #crude #oil from a tanker grounded off a #NatureReserve in Oman has created a slick covering almost 400 square kilometres, the country's government said Monday.

Last week in the Arctic, September 30th rundown:
1) An oil tanker travelling from the Russian Arctic to China, without any ice shielding, narrowly avoided a serious disaster. It struck sea ice and got stuck for days, avoiding a spill as Russia courts tragedy in the north.

#DemocracyNow: Will #Biden Pardon #StevenDonziger, Who Faced Retaliation for Suing #Chevron over #OilSpill in Amazon?
January 08, 2025
"Massachusetts Congressmember Jim McGovern calls on President Biden to pardon environmental activist Steven Donziger, who has been targeted for years by oil and gas giant Chevron. Donziger sued Chevron on behalf of farmers and Indigenous peoples who suffered the adverse health effects of oil drilling in the #EcuadorianAmazon. 'I visited Ecuador. I saw what Chevron did. It is disgusting' and 'grotesque,' says McGovern. 'Donziger stood up for these people who had no voice.' In return, Chevron has spent millions prosecuting him instead of holding itself to account, he adds, while a pardon from the president would show that the system can still 'stand up to #CorporateGreed and excesses.'"

CW: Philippines, ManillaBay, Oil Spill
‘An oil slick stretching about 3.7 kilometres was being carried by a "strong current" in an easterly, north-easterly direction…
‘“Strong winds and high waves were hampering response efforts…’
‘The MT Terra Nova "capsized and eventually submerged"…
The coast guard said it was investigating "if there was an existing weather disturbance in the vicinity waters when the maritime incident occurred."
