Iraqi musician Naseer Shamma shared details of a terrifying experience he had while visiting the Cook Islands.

Speaking to Al Arabiya FM, Shamma said, "I was in the Cook Islands, which are about a four-hour flight from New Zealand, to observe environmental changes. I found no industrial activity there; it was like paradise, with beauty I had never seen before."

He continued, "While filming on one of the islands, an island suddenly disappeared. We started running with the crew because the sea had swallowed it, and we immediately got into a boat to save ourselves." Shamma emphasized that climate change is real and urged enlightened artists to raise awareness about the dangers of these issues.
