CHAMAN, Pakistan — A government official on Saturday said that gunmen in Pakistan's southwest set ablaze 14 tankers carrying fuel for US and NATO troops in Afghanistan. A driver also was wounded during the Saturday attack.
Islamist militants and criminals in Pakistan frequently attack trucks carrying supplies for US and NATO troops. The supplies typically arrive in Pakistan's southern port city of Karachi and travel overland to Afghanistan through two main border crossings.
