The war conducted by the US and Israel against Iran also harms migratory birds.
Medianews.az reports that, according to the claims of environmental scientist Mohsen Yafi from Qatar University, the population of migratory birds that winter in the south and return north in the spring is at serious risk. Because they pass through the Persian Gulf and Iranian airspace, where hundreds of military airplanes and missiles fly, to return to their traditional "summer pastures."
Mohsen Yafi said that there is a possibility that migratory birds may not be able to return to their homeland via traditional routes by passing through Iranian airspace: "Changing their migration routes could also be fatal – due to the extension of the route, they may become tired and fail to complete the migration, and this problem also poses a threat of population decline for the birds."
