Blast Hits Gas Pipeline in Northeast Syria
[An Nahar] A kaboom hit a gas pipeline in northeastern Syria late Tuesday in the first attack on the country's energy infrastructure since protests erupted in March, a human rights...which are usually entirely different from personal liberty... activist said. "The kaboom hit the gas pipeline last night at 11 pm (20:00 GMT) in al-Tayyaneh northeast of the town of Mayadin," the director of the London-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, Rami Abdel Rahman, told Agence La Belle France Presse in Nicosia. State-owned al-Ikhbariya television said it was an oil pipeline in Deir al-Zour province that was hit and that the blast had caused no casualties and "limited damage". Posted by: Fred 2011-07-14 |
