Lebanon’s environment minister is warning it could take up to ten years for the Lebanese coastline to recover from a massive oil spill caused by the Israeli bombing of a power station. Environment minister Yacoub Sarraf told BBC News the spill has killed off massive stocks of fish and severely disrupted the eco-system. Meanwhile, a UN-affiliated marine group issued a warning Tuesday that the oil spill could pose a cancer risk to Beirut’s two million residents. The group, Inforac, calls the spill a “high-risk toxic cocktail made up of substances which cause cancer and damage to the endocrine system.”
