PESHAWAR — Gunmen Tuesday opened fire on a convoy carrying NATO troop supplies to Afghanistan, killing a driver in the first attack in Pakistan since Islamabad ended its seven-month blockade of the route, a government official said. No group has claimed responsibility for the attack, but the Pakistani Taliban had warned they would target the trucks after the government reopened the supply line earlier this month. Gunmen targeted the trucks as they were passing near a bazaar in the town of Jamrud in the Khyber tribal area, said Faraz Khan, a local government official. Jamrud is located very close to Torkham, one of the two crossings used to transport NATO supplies to Afghanistan. In addition to the driver who was killed, a second driver and his assistant were wounded, said Khan. — AP
