Background:
Once one of the world’s largest inland seas, the Aral Sea has witnessed profound ecological changes over the decades. Human activities, including extensive irrigation projects, have led to the sea’s drastic reduction in size, leaving behind a haunting tableau of shipwrecks on desolate shores. The Aral Sea region, located in western Uzbekistan, serves as a living testament to the delicate balance between nature and human intervention.
