Another 40 Nato supply vehicles torched in Peshawar
2008-12-09
Forty more military vehicles were set on fire on Monday in yet another attack on Nato forces' logistics inside a transport terminal at Hazarkhwani, only a day after around 171 trucks of the allied troops fighting against the Taliban in Afghanistan were torched in Pishtakhara.

Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP), Peshawar, Kashif Alam, said six trailers and nine containers were torched in the incident.

Eyewitnesses and another senior officer, who requested anonymity, however, disagreed with his senior, saying 40 military vehicles of the Nato forces were destroyed and 10 others damaged in the blaze. The official said the figure did not include the damaged trucks.

#8  Apparently not, bigjim. My guess is they're afraid it might offend somebody.

#7  I don't want to tell them their business, but has NATO ever considered putting some armed guys with these convoys?
Just a thought, they are in PAKISTAN after all.
