How did the persian gulf war affect the environment of the region?
The "Desert Storm" War in 1991 resulted in more ships being sunk in the gulf. Today, the estuary of the Shatt Al Arab is congested by about 180 sunken ships, including about two dozen oil tankers.Because steel corrodes rapidly in sea water, the hulls of these sunken tankers are about to split open. If that is allowed to happen it would cause a series of enormous spills.

About Gulf War
The first conflict in the Persian Gulf involving the United States and Iraq was part of an multi-national United Nations force to push Iraqi armed forces out of the oil-rich country of Kuwait in 1991. Iraqi forces were driven out of Kuwait 100 hours after operations began.
