"The engineers have been in Basra since last September, mainly to help in civil reconstruction around the southern Iraqi city. The contingent was rotated in March and the commitment was scheduled to end this month, with the proviso they would come out earlier if they were no longer able to do their work."
altho I note, too, that this (which I hadn't read before) notes that the pipeline in Basra was bombed in June. Makes me wonder whether it's gotten worse, or never got better. ..
