| [Iran Press TV] Pak bully boyz have torched tankers carrying supplies to the US-led foreign troops stationed in Afghanistan for the second time in less than 24 hours. Police say the gunnies targeted two vehicles in Dasht Bado town in Pakistain's southwestern Baluchistan province on Tuesday. The attack comes a day after three NATO supply trucks were set on fire in the same province. Two men riding a cycle of violence set fire to the tankers after "forcing the drivers and their helpers to leave," Rooters quoted a police official as saying. Dozens of NATO supply tankers and trucks have been set on fire in Pakistain this month. Pro-Talibs usually claim responsibility for such attacks. They argue that the assaults are in retaliation for non-UN-sanctioned US dronezaps on Pakistain's tribal region. Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistain bully boyz have stepped up attacks on convoys carrying supplies for US-led forces. |
