Oil refinery blaze contained
>From correspondents in Baghdad,  Iraq
December 31, 2004
 
A MORTAR or rocket strike set fire to Baghdad's Dura oil refinery today, an  
Iraqi interior ministry official and US military said.
 
After an initial blaze, the fire was contained, a US military spokesperson  
said.
 
Two civilians were treated for smoke inhalation in what the US military  
called a probable rocket attack.
 
Earlier, an interior ministry official said Baghdad firemen were struggling  
to douse the fire.
 
The Dura refinery is also home to Baghdad's main power plant. The refinery  
provides fuel for the plant, which provides electricity for most of Baghdad and 
 outlying areas.
 
It was not immediately clear if the fire had affected the power plant. In  
Baghdad and much of Iraq, electricity is erratic, with households enjoying 
power 
 sometimes for as little as three hours per day.
