On December 30, the Washington Post reported that a Sunni jihadist group has claimed to have blown up an oil pipeline in Irans southern Khuzestan province, the scene of other attacks by Arab separatists.
The report said an online video posted by Ansar al-Furqan claimed the attack and showed what it described as a pipeline near Omidiyeh.
The U.S.-based SITE Intelligence Group quoted the video on Saturday as saying: This operation was conducted to inflict losses on the economy of criminal Iranian regime.
