Weather of Arabia - In mid-March 2022, an Emirati cargo ship called "Salmi 6" sank in Iranian territorial waters due to bad weather conditions and high waves at sea, and weather conditions prevented the success of rescue operations, which led to the sinking of the ship.

Before that incident, specifically at the end of January 2022, a ship owned by a Lebanese company called “Mansarose” sank northwest of the Greek island of Crete, after it was split in two due to weather conditions, as the ship left the port of Iskenderun in Turkey and was heading to Libya loaded with iron, and because of the wind The powerful force that blew in the area split in two.

The sinking incidents were not limited to the winter months. In April 2022, a cargo ship carrying 750 tons of fuel sank in Tunisian waters after being subjected to a marine accident due to bad weather, which sparked a state of environmental “panic” due to the amount of fuel.

Many marine accidents are repeated every year in different parts of the world due to weather conditions, which cause great financial losses and sometimes losses of lives, not to mention the environmental impacts of such accidents, so how can we reduce weather risks on maritime navigation and port operations?
