Iran war could unleash a marine 'super-spreader event'

Scientists are warning that the current situation involving the Iran war could lead to a marine super-spreader event. They specifically highlight that vessels currently idling near the Strait of Hormuz pose a significant risk. According to these experts, the resumption of trade activities could unleash invasive species from these ships into the environment. This potential ecological crisis is linked directly to the maritime disruptions occurring in the region as trade operations eventually restart.
