IRAQI RESISTANCE
Yahoo: Rash of incidents hit Iraq's pipeline network
Two northern Iraqi pipelines went ablaze in northern Iraq (news - web sites), following an explosion and a rocket-propelled grenade (RPG) attack, as a fire struck a natural gas pipeline in the same area, official US and Iraqi sources said
A fire erupted in an oil pipeline 25 kilometers (12 miles) north of Kirkuk after a group of unknown gunmen fired RPGs, said the head of the Iraq's northern oil company, Aidin Mohammed Hassan.
He said the fire began at 10:00 pm (1900 GMT) and was still ongoing.
Earlier that day, a blast on a pipeline forced Iraq's largest oil refinery in Baiji to shut down electricity for two days.
