Peoples Defense Forces (HPG) claimed responsibility for the explosion on the pipeline in Sarýkamýþ district of Kars on 29 May.
In a written statement on the action, Peoples Defense Forces Press Office (HPG-BIM) reported that the explosion at Tbilisi-Ceyhan natural gas pipeline occurred as a result of a sabotage action by guerrilla forces.
The explosion on Tuesday evening caused a great damage and oil flow as well as fires that continued for a long time after the action.
The HPG statement also gave information about a guerrilla action against the road construction yard near Çatak district of Van.
The statement remarked that the action was carried out as the constructor company didnt take any notice of HPGs earlier warnings against the construction in the guerilla controlled Besta region.
Three building machineries were destroyed by guerrillas in the action, added HPG-BIM.
