Russian tanker crash causes sea disaster

A month after two oil tankers were seriously damaged in the Black Sea, a large oil spill is spreading in the Kerch Strait, which separates Russia from the annexed Crimea. The oil leaked into the strait from two ships, which got into trouble on December 15th during bad weather. Volgoneft-239 ran aground after a storm, while Volgoneft-212 sank.

Now up to 5,000 tons of oil have leaked, and according to media reports and official statements analyzed by BBC Verify, the leak has spread throughout the Black and Azov Seas. Senior Russian scientist Viktor Danilov has dubbed the leak the worst "environmental disaster" in the country in the 21st century.

Highest mountain in the world has raised its price tag

Nepal will increase the fees for permits to climb Mount Everest by more than 35%, making the world's highest peak more expensive for climbers for the first time in nearly a decade. Revenues from permit fees and other expenses of foreign climbers are a key source of income and employment for the cash-strapped country, which is home to eight of the world's 14 highest peaks, including Mount Everest.

The permit to climb the 8,849 meter high Mount Everest will cost 15,000 dollars, said Narayan Prasad Regmi, the Director General of the Ministry of Tourism, announcing a 36% increase in the fee from the original 11,000 dollars, which has been in effect for almost a decade, CNN reported.
