The Taliban have hit NATO's precarious supply line through Peshawar the third time in three days. Today, Taliban fighters detonated a bomb under a bridge as a NATO convoy was passing through Peshawar.
The bomb was detonated as the lead vehicle crossed the bridge. Two drivers and a driver's assistant were wounded, and the bridge was heavily damaged. The convoy was stopped dead in its tracks, but the Taliban did not follow up the bombing with an ambush.
