Satellite images show evidence of oil leak spreading from sanctioned vessel near Oman

Satellite images reveal an oil leak spreading from the sanctioned Cameroon-flagged tanker Caroline Bezengi near Oman's Hallaniyat Islands, with experts warning the vessel could break apart during the monsoon season, risking a larger spill in a protected marine reserve. The tanker, part of Russia's 'shadow fleet' and carrying over 800,000 barrels of crude, has been stranded since June after an onboard explosion.
