Destruction of Gaza sewage system may have worsened algae bloom in Mediterranean

Untreated wastewater discharged into the sea provides large amounts of nitrogen and phosphorus compounds that drive rapid algae growth. This phenomenon threatens marine ecosystems and fisheries across the Mediterranean basin.
