Pakistan suspends NATO supply route for security reasons

Chia sẻ

Pakistani officials said Thursday that Pakistan has temporarily suspended the NATO supply route crossing its northwestern border into Afghanistan due to fears of Islamist attacks. An official said the NATO trucks have been held since Wednesday evening to reinforce security. Local administration official Bakhatiar Khan said the routes will resume very soon, but until then the NATO trucks may not approach the border. The closure has only affected the Torkham border gate, the one closest to the capital of Kabul.
