Yemen tribal fighters bomb main oil pipeline
Tribesmen have bombed Yemen's main oil export pipeline halting crude flows, local officials said, disrupting an important source of revenue.
The attack on Saturday hit the pipeline which carries crude from the Safer oilfields, in the al-Habab area of Maarib province, to Ras Isa oil terminal on the Red Sea, the officials said.
The pipeline carries about 70,000-110,000 barrels per day of Marib light crude. It was repaired in late May after a previous attack by tribesmen.
Yemen's oil and gas pipelines have repeatedly been sabotaged by rebels or tribesmen since 2011, causing fuel shortages and slashing export earnings for the country.
