Karachi: Gunmen set fire to two armoured personal carriers (APCs) headed to US forces in Afghanistan from Karachi, police said on Monday.
A lorry carrying the APCs was stationed at Karachi’s port since August 18 due to a truckers’ strike on fuel costs.
"They were armed and about two dozen of them. They first fired and then burned the two APCs," a police official said.
The official did not comment on whether Taliban were involved in the attack, but said investigations were underway.
Militants have threatened to start target Afghan-bound military supplies that are transported via Karachi.
