KRG resumes oil pumping days after bomb blast
Government spokesman Jotiar Adil said in a tweet published on Saturday that the government has resumed pumping oil from the pipeline with the regular production capacity.
At the end of October, the government announced that it would suspend its oil exports after bombing the pipeline pumping oil.
On October 29, the media affiliated with the PKK adopted in a statement detonating an oil pipeline of the Turkish "BOTA" company in Pagok region of the city of Merdin, northeastern Turkey, putting it out of service.
This attack comes days after the Kurdistan Regional Security Council announced dismantling a 12-person cell associated with PKK. The cell, according to the council, was planning to launch attacks on diplomats and capital companies in the region.
These developments also come as Baghdad and Erbil have reached an agreement to normalize the situation in the district of Shingal, Nineveh.
Both parties agreed on jointly administering the district and removing all armed groups from it; most notably the Kurdistan Workers Party.
