A major gas pipeline exploded in central Ukraine on Tuesday, on the main line that carries Russian gas through Ukraine out to the rest of Europe. A video released by Ukraine’s Emergencies Ministry shows flames erupting from the pipelines in Ukraine’s Poltava region. The flames are said to have reached up to 200 metres high and sent a huge fire raging in a field crossed by the pipeline. Fire crews turned off pipeline faucets and were fighting the flames. This comes a day after the Russian energy company Gazprom said it was cutting off supplies to Ukraine in a dispute over pricing. Ukraine’s interior minister said on today that the explosion had been caused by a bomb, prompting the prime minister to increased security on the country’s gas pipeline network. Report by Claire Lomas.

good god
Its already confirmed that the Ukranian government did this dumb fucks, ITN you suck lmao
Likely Ukrainian Government Inside Job.
=)
Must have been a small bomb. Propergander I think. But I really dont care. Russia & the Ukraine. Have been nasty for decades. And supplying weapons to al qaeda. I dont know what the government's problem is. It shouldn't be that hard for the USA and them to talk threw it. Nothing can be gained by the way there going now. The Kennedy's did it during the cold war period.
This is WAR!
Who blew it up ? Did Russia do it on purpose to cause the war ?
