TOPSHOT - This satellite image obtained from Copernicus Sentinel Data 2026 on May 8, 2026, appears to show an oil slick spreading off the coast of Kharg Island, a key oil export terminal for Iran. It was not immediately clear what had caused the apparent spill, which was located off the island's west coast and appears to cover more than 20 square miles (52 square kilometres), according to global monitor Orbital EOS. Kharg Island is at the heart of Iran's oil export industry, a lynchpin of the country's battered economy, and lies in the Gulf, far to the north of the narrow Strait of Hormuz.
