Fuel truck struck by Taliban rocket
2017-08-31
Taliban insurgents fired a rocket at a fuel tanker on Tuesday night in northern Parwan province, officials confirmed Wednesday.

The rocket attack was followed up by gunfire, officials said.

The incident took place on the Parwan-North highway close to the Agriculture Department, the head of Parwan’s media office, Salem Noori said.

Residents claimed the highway was closed to traffic for hours as the tanker continued to burn for at least two hours.

The Taliban has not yet commented on the incident.
