Iran Gas Exports to Turkey to Be Resumed Friday

Iran will resume exporting natural gas to Turkey on Friday after the flow was halted after saboteurs attacked a pipeline carrying natural gas from the Islamic Republic to its neighbor, Iran's English-language Press TV reported.

"According to Turkish officials, the pipeline will become operational within the next three days," Press TV quoted Yadollah Baybordi, director of Gas Transmission Operation District 8 at the National Iranian Gas Company (NIGC), as saying on Tuesday.

"Gas Transmission Operation District 8 is ready to cooperate [with Turkish technicians] to solve the problem that has affected Iran-Turkey gas exports pipeline," he added.

Unidentified persons attacked a pipeline carrying natural gas from Iran to Turkey in Turkey's eastern province of Agri late on Monday, halting the flow.
