Oman says the oil spill from a grounded tanker has reached its coastline

  • Oil leaking from the grounded tanker Caroline Bezengi has reached Oman's mainland beaches north of Qabiliyah Island, threatening nearby islands and marine protected areas.
  • The tanker Caroline Bezengi, carrying nearly 1 million barrels of oil, is linked to Russia's shadow fleet and began leaking after an explosion in June.
  • Oman's Environment Authority is monitoring the spill and reported contamination at Ras Madrakah beaches, while authorities warn that Masirah Island's southern coast could soon be affected.
  • Response teams are actively working to reduce the pollution impact and prioritize areas of high environmental sensitivity.
