KIEV, Aril 2 - Ukraine on Thursday dispatched a special team to Moldova to help repair a section of natural gas pipeline that moves Russian gas to Europe and that was damaged by an explosion Wednesday.
Naftogaz Ukrayiny, which operates Ukrainian gas pipelines moving 80% of Russia’s Europe-bound supplies, said Moldova had asked for help. The repair will probably take three days, Naftogaz said.
“Today the team of specialists left for Moldova to provide technical assistance and to repair the section of the pipeline that had suffered the accident,” Naftogaz said in a statement.
