NATO helicopters violate Pakistan airspace
 (KUNA) -- Only two days after Pakistain re-opened supply routes for NATO forces in Afghanistan, the allied forces helicopters early Tuesday reportedly again violated Pakistains aerial space.Two NATO helicopters entered into Pakistain air space and flew back after buzzing the bordering tribal area for few minutes, citing unnamed sources local news channels reported. No immediate official confirmation of the violation was available, which came two days after Pakistain re-opened supply routes for NATO tankers. Pakistain had closed all routes for NATO supplies after three soldiers were killed in an aerial strike by NATO forces. It was only after formal apologies from the US ambassador and the US military chief that Pakistain decided to re-open the routes. During the closure period, more than 150 NATO oil tankers were destroyed in jihad boy attacks and at least ten people were killed. Posted by: Fred 2010-10-13 |
