A public beach in Australia’s Sydney was closed after hundreds of “mysterious, black, ball-shaped debris” were washed ashore, TASS learned from the Randwick City Council. Officials suggested that the discovery may be “tar balls which are formed when oil comes in to contact with debris and water, typically the result of oil spills or seepage,” although their origin and composition are yet to be established.
