At least 16 people were killed after a bomb exploded on an Afghanistan-bound NATO oil tanker being driven near a Pakistani border town.
The victims were young people who had gathered to collect oil leaking from the tanker near Landi Kotal town in the northwestern tribal region of Khyber.
A local official says the oil tanker caught fire after a blast caused by a small bomb.
Villagers from nearby houses started collecting oil coming out of the destroyed tanker after the fire had been extinguished.
But the fire erupted again and at least 16 people, including five young boys, were burnt to death.
In another incident, a bomb attack hit 16 NATO fuel trucks passing through Pakistan to Afghanistan but no one was wounded.
