Unidentified gunmen attacked a Total-operated oil facility in Nigeria this morning using high explosives, sources from private security companies have claimed.
It was unclear whether there were any casualties or damage to the facility in the attack, a Reuters report said.
No one from Total was immediately available for comment.
“There was an attack on an onshore flow-station. They used high explosives,” one of the sources told Reuters, asking not to be named.
