Video shows swarms of jellyfish covering the waters, but authorities say it’s posing a nuisance and danger.
The surface of the sea was covered by a swarm of jellyfish near Haifa Bay, Israel, as seen in footage released by the Nature and Parks Authority. From afar, it looks like white dots scattered across the water, but up close, those are actually jellyfish— too many of them to count. Authorities said on Twitter that human activity contributed to the multiplication of jellyfish including climate change, pollution, dumping waste into the sea and harming predators of jellyfish such as sea turtles.
"The water gets hotter and hotter and we can see more and more jellyfish," Guy Lavian, a marine ranger with the Israel Nature and Parks Authority, told Reuters. "They cause real damage here. You can definitely say that global warming contributes to these massive swarms." , jellyfish can sting humans and the wound can be painful and sometimes dangerous. However, jellyfish don't purposely attack humans as most stings occur when people accidentally touch a jellyfish.
