Bombs targeting two oil wells have sparked a fire at the Khabbaz oil field in Iraq's Kirkuk province, reports cited security sources as saying.

Shafaq News reported that Daesh [the Arabic acronym for terrorist ‘ISIS/ISIL’ group] is responsible for the two blasts.

As reported, the fire is raging and rescue workers are putting it out.

Back in 2014, Daesh took control of the named oil field but it was liberated afterward.
