Kabul: Almost 23 oil-tankers and trucks were set on fire by the militants in an attack on Nato terminal in Afghanistan, officials said on Wednesday.
The trucks were parked in the Rabatak area of Samangan Province, where the drivers had stopped to rest, when they were attacked.
“19 of the destroyed vehicles were thought to be fuel tankers while at least one the driver was also injured,” Khalil Andarabi, security chief of the northern province of Samangan, told RFER/RL 1.
The Associated Press reports that the tankers were transporting fuel south into Afghanistan from neighboring Uzbekistan.
