A bomb exploded Sunday on an oil pipeline that carries crude from the Naft Khana oil field, in Diyala province, to Baghdad's Daura refinery."The extent of the damage is still unknown," said a Diyala security official.The Daura refinery has been Iraq's most prolific refinery since June 2014, when the Baiji refinery was taken offline by militants from the so-called Islamic State (IS) group. It typically receives about 9,000 barrels per day (bpd) from Naft Khana.
