 Suspected militants blew up a gas pipeline in Balochistan on Tuesday, officials said. The pipeline is owned by Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Ltd (SNGPL) and feeds gas to the Punjab province. Officials at the company said supplies to consumers remained unaffected. “One of our 30-inch diameter pipeline was damaged in the attack, which took place at around 1:30 am and some 11 km away from the Sui fields,” said Naeem Ahmad Khan, a spokesman for SNGPL. Khan said the repair work on the damaged pipeline was likely to be completed within 24 hours.
