#1 This can't wait for Baghdad to fall.

#2 I trust IRNA about as much as Saddam's "Minister of Information". I'll wait for the western media to confirm this report.

#3 UNEP, which is monitoring events in Iraq in an effort to identify potential environmental risks, said in a March 31 press release that three of the seven oil wells originally set on fire in southern Iraq near Basra are still burning, and toxic fumes are also emanating from
oil-filled trenches and bomb-ignited fires in Baghdad.
It's smoke from the two remaing oil fires in the Ramailah field drifting over Basra. Checked all news sites and they show no other oil well fires. I'm sure there are fires, but no wells.

#4 An hour or so ago I was watching one of the cable news networks who had an embed with the Desert Rats, fighting in the Basra suburbs. He said there were actually oil trenches on fire in that area, like in Baghdad.
