Nigerian militants threaten more oil attacks

LAGOS, Mar 27 (Reuters) Nigerian militants who freed three foreign oil worker hostages today said the release did not signify an end to their attacks on oil facilities which have already cut exports by a quarter.

The Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta said in an email to Reuters that kidnapping was a distraction for its fighters and that they would now concentrate on attacking oil facilities and workers found on them.
