"The latest information I have, uncorroborated but believed to be true, is that that has ceased." The oil was said to have come from the Mina al-Bakr terminal in southern Iraq. Many thousans of barrels of oil were released in the course of 24 hours. 101 War headlines 130 Gulf military Next News Parl'ment GulfIndex WorldNews
