Tanker carrying oil for NATO forces explodes |
2008-05-02 |
LANDIKOTAL: A powerful bomb strapped to an oil tanker loaded with 44,000 litres of fuel for NATO forces in Afghanistan blew up on Thursday in the Neki Khel parking area on the Pak-Afghan Highway. The vehicleÂ’s drivers managed to salvage the engine, but could not save the tanker. Flames ravaged the area and a nearby shop set ablaze by the blast was completely razed. It took the local administration two hours to put out the fire with the help of locals. No casualties were reported. |
