Motley flotilla battles spill from Prestige off Spain
A flotilla led by the Rijndelta fights to halt oil from the sunken Prestige reaching Galicia’s coast. Fishermen haul oil with nets and buckets at the Arousa inlet as Rimadelta and other ships skim, with officials reporting up to 17 000 tons released and hundreds of beaches contaminated.
