Key oceans treaty crosses threshold to come into force

The High Seas Treaty, aiming to protect marine biodiversity, will come into force as it received its 60th ratification from Morocco. Covering more than two-thirds of the ocean, the agreement sets binding rules to conserve marine life, which is under threat from overfishing, pollution, and climate change. Environmentalists see this as a turning point for the world's oceans, emphasizing the urgent need for global collaboration to protect our planet's precious marine resources.
