Five Workers Killed Working on ILF Pipeline in Ukraine

Speculation runs rampant in Europe after five gas line construction workers died in mysterious circumstances. The workers were employed by German construction company ILF, who agreed to make the pipeline in 2010.

The company had been contracted to build a oil pipeline from Europe to Russia. Most of Europe's energy needs are met by Russian gas and oil. 

The agreement between the EU and Russia was tenuous but a significant accomplishment nonetheless. Construction went well until they reached the Ukrainian border. The Associated Press reported that all of the company's paperwork was in order as they prepared to start construction in the Ukraine. 

Most key details are missing, leading to fear that the agreement may no longer be in place.
