CAIRO - A fire that erupted on an Egyptian gas export pipeline after it was attacked by an armed gang early on Wednesday could rage for days before engineers are able to begin repairs, a security source said.

It was the second attack since early February on the pipeline, which supplies natural gas to Israel and Jordan, local cement plants and a power station.
