PESHAWAR, Pakistan — A witness and a police officer say militants have attacked a terminal for trucks carrying supplies to US and NATO troops in Afghanistan.
The attack early Monday was the second on Afghan-bound military supplies in the northwestern Pakistani city of Peshawar in as many days.
A security guard at the al-Fasil terminal on the outskirts of the city says up to 50 armed people entered the termimal.
He says they threw gasoline over 10 container trucks carrying supplies and then set off explosions.
Rising militant attacks are raising doubts about the reliability of critical supply routes through Pakistan, prompting the U.S. and NATO to seek alternatives.
