Correct answers: B and C — Kuwait and Saudi Arabia.
During the 1990–91 Persian Gulf War Iraq set fire to hundreds of Kuwaiti oil wells and released millions of barrels of oil into the Persian Gulf and onto desert areas. That caused massive smoke, air pollution, oil slicks and coastal damage that affected Kuwait and parts of Saudi Arabia. Afghanistan and Yemen were not affected by those wartime environmental impacts.
