Oil Pipeline Bombed

Militants bombed a state-run oil pipeline in southern Nigeria Monday causing massive spills, in the latest attack on the country's oil infrastructure, said an industry official.

Yemen, which relies on crude exports to finance up to 70 percent of budget spending, has suffered frequent bombings of its main pipeline in recent years.

Attacks in Iraq killed 13 people on Tuesday, four of them Shiite worshippers, while militants bombed a major oil pipeline, halting exports via Turkey, officials said.
