Iran considers deliberate Persian Gulf oil spill

Iran is considering the possibility of spilling oil in the Persian Gulf in order to contaminate the waters of the strategically important Strait of Hormuz, German weekly Der Spiegel reported on Sunday. The spill would be a way of “punishing” the West and forcing it to decrease the economic sanctions imposed against Tehran.

Citing Western intelligence sources, the Der Spiegel reported that the plan, codenamed “Murky Waters,” is meant to block shipping routes in the Gulf to international oil tankers.

In addition driving up oil prices, the resulting environmental disaster would force Western countries to start a large-scale cleanup operation in cooperation with Iran, which could reduce the sanctions currently placed on the country.
