The Aral Sea is located in Central Asia, situated between the countries of Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan.
The Aral Sea is an endorheic lake known for its dramatic shrinkage over the past few decades due to the diversion of its inflowing rivers.
Historically one of the world’s largest lakes, the Aral Sea has reduced significantly in size since the 1960s due to large-scale irrigation projects in the Soviet era, leading to severe environmental, social, and economic consequences.
