A rebel group opposed to Niger's junta claimed responsibility for an attack that destroyed the PetroChina-funded Niger-Benin crude oil pipeline.
The attack Sunday reportedly occurred 10 kilometers (6.2 miles) from the village of Salkam in the southeastern Dosso region.
The pipeline covers nearly 2,000 kilometers linking Niger's Agadem oilfield to the coast of Benin.
It has a capacity of 90,000 barrels per day and is meant to facilitate exports under a $400 million deal with the China National Petroleum Corp (CNPC).
The group known as Patriotic Liberation Front (FPL) said it disabled a section of the pipeline as a “warning sign to the Nigerien junta.”
