Smoke is seen coming up from a pipeline carrying oil from east to west Syria, which was blown up in the Soltaniyeh area near a refinery in the city of Homs on December 8, 2011.
Following the explosion, clashes erupted between Syrian security forces and armed groups in Homs.
According to reports, a Lebanese and a Libyan national have been killed in the clashes.
Syria has been experiencing unrest since mid-March, with demonstrations being held both against and in favor of President Bashar al-Assad.
Hundreds of people, including security forces, have been killed in the turmoil.
While the West and the Syrian opposition accuse the Syrian government of the killings, Damascus blames ''outlaws, saboteurs and armed terrorist groups'' for the unrest, insisting that it is being orchestrated from abroad.

The msm is getting hard to listen to these days, they are just so blatantly biased I find myself on the side of dictators because they are so clearly the under-dog.
But it it's just so inevitable they will soon attack Syria, Iran and probably Pakistan after that. Or maybe all at once.
Can't we just say No to ww3.
All these crazy religious descendants of Abraham. I wish HE had never been born, nothing but evil comes from him.
Be nice if we had gotten another Budda instead.
