Yesterday, Brega Petroleum Marketing Company confirmed that the gasoline tank No.121 at its storage facility on airport road was hit by a mortar shell on April 04, 2020.

Brega Media Office stated that there were no fatalities, but critical infrastructure was compromised.

The storage, which contained 16 tanks, had only two tanks left for use, one for gasoline and one for diesel, which would affect that storage capacity and could cause a potential fuel shortage over the coming months.

It should be noted that the storage was evacuated after being targeted so many times.
