Explosion burns Five Nato oil tankers
2011-06-08
Cost of doing business: the locals need their periodic excitement.
[Dawn] A Pak government official says five NATO oil tankers burned after an kaboom at the Afghan border.

Tahir Khan says the Tuesday kaboom destroyed a parking area at the Torkham border crossing, where the tankers go through customs before crossing into neighboring Afghanistan.

He said he did not know who was responsible or what caused the kaboom. Militants usually attack the tankers elsewhere in Pakistain.
On the other hand, the tankers seldom combust spontaneously.
Most supplies for NATO and its allied US forces pass through two routes in the country.
