Iran: much

Iranian Society for the Prevention of Cruelty Against Animals (SPCA) said that recently 20 dogs were arrested in Pardisan Park in Tehran.
The dogs were reportedly being walked by their owners when security forces took the canines away and transferred them to what appears to be a detention center.
The spokesman ofSPCA told Radio Farda that the dogs will likely be kept in the detention center for a while and then released after their owners sign a written document promising not to walk their dogs in public.

Iran has been forced to deploy more than half its fleet of supertankers to store oil at anchorage at Kharg Island in the Gulf, because of the sanctions.
Sources say that 14 of National Iranian Tanker Company's (NITC) fleet of 25 very large crude carriers, each loaded with about 2 million barrels of oil, are now at anchor acting as floating storage.
5 out of 9 Suezmaxtankers are also parked offshore with oil aboard.
That means that of Iran's 59-million-barrel fleet of VLCCs and Suezmax sized tankers, 33 million barrels of capacity are being used to store crude at sea in the Gulf, or 56 percent of the fleet.
