Jbessa gas export pipeline targeted in northeastern Syria, fire erupts, SANA reports
Technical crews isolated the damaged section as authorities investigated suspected sabotage and assessed whether gas supplies to power stations were disrupted.
- On Thursday, an explosion struck the 16-inch Jbessa gas export pipeline in the al-Arabidi area of Hasakah province, sparking a fire that prompted emergency crews to isolate the damaged section.
- Hours before the Jbessa blast, a separate incident damaged the Baniyas-Homs oil pipeline near Hudeida, which the company attributed to a "sabotage attack" aimed at fuel theft.
- The blast occurred at approximately 5:15 p.m. about 60 kilometers from Shaddadi, where company spokesman Oday al-Satouf stated technical personnel closed valves to contain the incident.
- Authorities have not identified those responsible for the explosion or confirmed whether gas deliveries to power stations were interrupted, and neither SANA nor the company named a suspect.
- These incidents add to a series of attacks on Syria's energy network in recent months, including a September fire near Deir Ezzor that complicated government efforts to revive the sector.
