Bombs Hit Iraq Oil Pipeline

摘要

Three bombs hit an oil pipeline that transports crude from Iraq’s southern oil fields to storage tanks around the oil hub of Basra on Tuesday, an oil police source said. The impact on oil production or exports was not immediately clear, but firefighters were working to put out the blaze caused by the blast, the source who was at the explosion site said. “The explosions happened in succession and caused an enormous fire,” he said.
