Red Sea Tanker Attack: Potential Environmental Disaster Looms After Rebel Strike

Doug McIntyre reports on a critical environmental threat in the Red Sea, where Houthi rebels have attacked a tanker carrying over a million barrels of oil. The tanker is now at risk of leaking, potentially causing catastrophic environmental damage, reminiscent of the Exxon Valdez disaster but on a much larger scale. The situation is dire, as nearby rebel forces prevent any immediate containment efforts. McIntyre highlights that while climate change is often seen as a slow process, events like this demonstrate how quickly and devastatingly it can unfold.
