Iran ran out of storage a week ago and has directly been releasing raw crude into the sea around Kharg island.

Why is Iran doing this? Once a crude oil well is made operational, you can't stop production without seriously or permanently damaging the well. So in times of low demand, countries store unneeded crude in very huge tanks so that the well can remain in operation. In Iran's case however, it can't ship crude out due to the US blockade. And with it's storage tanks now full, it is releasing that crude into the ocean.

This sludge will pollute coastal waters far beyond Iran. But the US is too stupid to realise this.
