Diesel Oil Spill in the Philippines

A diesel oil leak adversely affects Rosario town, Cavite Province, as the spill occurred near the shore on August 8, 2013. Health authorities issued warnings, a ban on fishing, gathering of shellfish, and recreational activities in the affected areas as the spill may have contaminated marine creatures and may cause harm to human health.
On August 12th, two days after these images where taken, the Philippine Coast Guard divers have found a leak in a submerged pipeline of the giant oil firm Petron Corp. off the coast of Cavite, indicating it was the source of the oil spill that turned parts of Manila Bay red and adversely affected at least four coastal towns in the province.
