MOUNT SODOM, April 22, 2019 (Xinhua) — Salt stalactites are seen in the Malham cave near the Dead Sea in southeastern Israel on April 14, 2019. Israeli and European researchers have discovered the world’s deepest salt cave, Malham Cave with a depth of at least 10 kilometers, near the Dead Sea, said a report issued Thursday by the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. The researchers re-measured the 7,000-year-old Malham Cave, near the Dead Sea in southeastern Israel, and found that it is much longer than 5.5 kilometers as previously thought. Thus, the Israeli cave bypasses Iran’s Cave of the Three Nudes (3N) on Qeshm Island, which since 2006 has been considered the world’s deepest salt cave with a depth of 6.58 kilometers.
