Fifteen Palestinians were killed and dozens were injured on Sunday when Israeli forces stormed a school housing displaced people in the Abd Rabbo estate in the town of Beit Hanoun in the northern Gaza Strip, while a relief organization warned of an environmental disaster due to the accumulation of bodies in the streets.

An abandoned oil tanker carrying more than a million barrels of crude oil could pollute "vast areas" of the Red Sea and nearby coasts if it disintegrates or explodes, creating a serious "environmental disaster" with long-term effects, experts warn.

An international environmental organization called for urgent action to rescue the Greek oil tanker "Sunion" stuck in the Red Sea, west of Yemen, to avoid an imminent environmental disaster in the region.

The US and Italian foreign ministers discussed, on Thursday, the environmental risks in the Red Sea (west of Yemen), following the Houthi attack on the oil tanker "Sunion" amid intensive diplomatic efforts to save and tow it.

The Yemeni government said that the Houthi attack on the oil tanker (Sunion) is systematic terrorism, and is the ninth of its kind targeting chemical and oil tankers since last November, which confirms the Iranian-backed militia’s indifference to the catastrophic repercussions on Yemen and the region in the event of any leakage of those products.

The European Union Naval Mission in the Red Sea "Aspedes" confirmed today, Monday, that the fire that broke out in the oil tanker "Sunion" as a result of the Houthi attacks that targeted it in the Red Sea is still ongoing.
