Gunmen blew up a crude-oil pipeline in the Syrian province of Deir Ezzor, Syrian Arab News Agency reported, citing Oil Ministry officials.

The 24-inch pipeline was attacked by “an armed terrorist group” late yesterday in the Ain Ali area south of the village of al-Quriya, according to SANA. The explosion didn’t affect production as the company directed crude flow into an alternative pipeline network, it said.
