Is Iran Dumping Oil into the Sea?
Is Iran—unable to sell its crude oil due to the U.S. embargo—resorting to dumping it into the ocean? Is it taking this drastic measure because it cannot halt production at its oil wells, and all its storage facilities have reached full capacity? Reports to this effect are emerging based on an analysis of satellite imagery. These reports gain further credence from satellite visuals showing a massive black slick floating near Kharg Island, a key hub for Iran's oil exports.
