Shipping traffic at the Port of Antwerp in Belgium has been partially suspended following an oil spill that originated in one of the facility's docks and leaked into the River Scheldt. The incident occurred during a bunkering operation at the Deurganckdock. While the source of the leak has been successfully contained, the resulting pollution has reached the river, prompting immediate response measures.
