NATO supply trucks attacked

Early Wednesday, dozens of suspected militants burned several trucks at one of the main transportation depots for NATO supply trucks just outside Peshawar.

Speaking at a regional economic conference in Islamabad, President Karzai said ambushes and sabotage striking hundreds of trucks in the past year has choked-off trade between the two countries.

"Trucks have been burned, drivers killed and merchandise has been looted and set on fire," he said. "There is more to this. Terrorists and extremists are extending their reach in whole areas of our countries."
