据也门港口官员说，以色列对伊朗支持的胡塞叛军控制的也门荷台达港发动空袭，造成至少2,000万美元的损失。

这次空袭于2024年7月20日进行，是对胡塞武装无人机袭击特拉维夫造成一名以色列男子死亡的回应。

以色列的袭击目标是该港口的燃料储存设施、能源基础设施和集装箱起重机，造成了广泛的破坏。

这次空袭动用了数百架以色列飞机，摧毁了两座巨大的起重机，损坏了码头，并引发了持续数天的大火。此外，一艘小型船只和许多建筑物着火。

也门红海港口公司副总裁Nasr al-Nusairi表示，初步损失评估估计损失超过2000万美元。

然而，估计金额不包括石油部管辖的燃料储存设施被毁造成的损失。

尽管受到了严重的破坏，港口暂时停止了运营，但很快就恢复了运营。

第一批两艘集装箱船在罢工三天后抵达荷台达，港口在周日开始运作，工人们在卸货集装箱。

以色列对荷台达的袭击是首次针对也门胡塞武装控制的领土。

自2023年11月以来，胡塞武装袭击了红海和亚丁湾的船只，以支持加沙冲突期间的巴勒斯坦人。

以色列国防军声称，这次袭击是对胡塞经济的重大打击，并企图破坏伊朗武器的进口。

美国和英国此前曾对胡塞武装发动报复性袭击，但以色列的行动标志着直接干预达到了一个全新的水平。

Marine biologists have found that sharks off the coast of Rio de Janeiro tested positive for ***e, indicating alarming environmental issues caused by inadequate sewage treatment and illegal drug operations.



The Oswaldo Cruz Foundation, a well known scientific, technology, and health institute, conducted this pioneering study published in Scientific of the Total Environment.



Over the course of nearly three years, 13 sharp nose sharks were tested, and all of them contained high amounts of ***e in their muscle and liver tissues.



The concentrations were up to 100 times higher than previously observed for other aquatic creatures.



Researchers believe the contamination is the result of inadequately handled sewage and hidden refining operations, as well as traffickers’ lost or dumped ***e in the water.



Rachel Ann Hauser-Davis, a biologist from the IOC Environmental Health Assessment and Promotion Laboratory, stated that specific studies are required to determine the precise impact of this contamination on animals.



She expressed concern about possible impacts on shark growth, maturation, and reproduction, citing the liver’s role in embryo development.



The samples were gathered from September 2021 to August 2023 as part of a monitoring program to determine pollution’s impact on marine life.



Sharks, as apex predators, play an important part in the food chain and serve as “sentinel species” that can alert humans to potential environmental hazards.



Further study is required to determine the particular impacts of ***e on sharks, but past studies have indicated that drugs such as antidepressants, heavy metals, and birth control medicines pollute aquatic ecosystems.



Brown trout, in particular, have been shown to acquire methamphetamine addictions, raising concerns about the potential impact on sharks.



Sara Novais, a marine ecotoxicologist at the Polytechnic University of Leiria’s Marine and Environmental Sciences Centre, termed the findings “very important and potentially worrying.



She emphasized that while the study is the first to identify ***e in sharks, it expands upon previous research that has shown numerous contaminants entering streams around the world.



The study urges improved sewage treatment facilities and stricter regulations on illegal drug operations to reduce the environmental risk.
