Three NATO tankers blown up

QUETTA: Three NATO tankers were torched on Saturday in the Mongechar area of Kalat district. According to official sources, NATO tankers were carrying fuel for NATO forces in Afghanistan and were on their way to Kandahar. Unknown armed men on a motorcycle intercepted the oil tankers and took the people on board hostage at gunpoint and set the trucks on fire. The assailants managed to flee from the scene. Law enforcement agencies rushed to the spot soon after the incident. A case had been registered in the Mongechar police station and investigations were underway. In the past few weeks, more than 20 NATO oil tankers had been set on fire, going through the same route, but no organization has claimed responsibility so far. staff report

If you're going to run supply convoys through hostile/unsecured territory without some kind of escort to protect them, you need to get your head out of your ass.
