“Ecosystems “the silence victims of the wars
Whenever we think of war, we usually think on the tragic loss of human life, but wars have another victim and it is the nature.
Ecosystems are the silence victims of the wars.
The environmental impacts of modern war can be grouped into three areas:
1) The consequences of preparing for war.
2) The immediate effects of war.
3) The aftermath of war.
These facts were clearly pronounced in the 1st and 2nd Gulf wars. The range of environmental impacts of such a war is subject to a multitude of political and military factors determined by the battle fields, duration of the conflict, tactics employed, weapons used and retaliatory actions taken by both sides.
Now the main question is
“Does the Persian Gulf region have the capacity for another war?”
And what happened to this environment if Iran will be attacked by the US and its allies.
