The Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA) revealed on Sunday, citing a source in the General Intelligence Directorate, that a terrorist plot to target the Homs refinery had been foiled. According to the agency, the Homs refinery plays an important role, alongside the Baniyas refinery, in supplying petroleum products to the local market. In October last year, the atmospheric distillation unit “10” was rehabilitated and maintained. It has a design capacity of 1 million tonnes of crude oil per year, which strengthens the refinery’s ability to produce petroleum products,
