Pakistanis take action to secure US supply route
Tuesday, December 30, 2008
There have been a number of attacks on our main supply route from Pakistan into Afghanistan and the equipment we ship. There have been some redeployments of troops away from the Afghan/Pakistan border to deal with perceived threats from India. It is good to see this this type of decisive action being taken.
ISLAMABAD, Pakistan, Dec. 30 -- Pakistan's military launched a major offensive Tuesday in the northwestern tribal region known as Khyber Agency, temporarily closing a key route used to supply U.S. and allied forces battling insurgents in neighboring Afghanistan.
Pakistani army and paramilitary troops backed by tanks, helicopter gunships and artillery units targeted the Taliban fighters involved in a recent string of attacks on vehicles carrying supplies for NATO and U.S. forces that pass through Khyber Agency and the nearby city of Peshawar
