Natural gas supplies from Iran to Turkey, interrupted by a pipeline blast for six days, have resumed, said an official statement today cited by Anatolia news agency.
 
"The Iranian gas pipeline whose activity was interrupted following an explosion is again in operation," said the statement from Energy Minister Taner Yıldız.
 
The blast hit the pipeline on October 8 near the town of Doğubeyazıt in the northeast of Turkey.
