Background

An oil leak has hit Genaveh-Kharg Oil Pipelines linking Iran's Kharg island to the country's mainland port of Genaveh.

"To prevent oil leakage on the seabed from the pipelines, diving teams have been dispatched," an official from Bushehr province said, adding that two vessels had been sent to Kharg and Genaveh's coasts to help with the clean-up.

Kharg island, located 25 km off the Gulf coast of Iran, hosts an oil terminal from which a large part of the country's oil exports are shipped.
