Fuel convoy hit in eastern Afghanistan

- The Associated Press

KABUL -- An Afghan police official says at least two private security guards have been wounded and two fuel tankers set on fire in eastern Afghanistan when militants attacked a supply convoy for NATO forces.

Provincial police spokesman Ghafor Khan says the two were injured in a battle Sunday near Jalalabad between the enemy combatants and private guards providing security for the convoy. He says other tankers were damaged along the highway, a main supply route between Pakistan and the Afghan capital of Kabul.

Associated Press writers Elena Becatoros, Heidi Vogt and Rahim Faiez in Kabul, and Noor Khan in Kandahar contributed to this report.
