A government official says seven paramilitary soldiers were killed when their vehicle was hit by a roadside bomb in a tribal region of northwestern Pakistan. Ghulam Farooq Khan says the vehicle was moving Saturday when it was hit in the Khyber region, famed for the pass that is the main route for ferrying supplies to U.S. and NATO forces in Afghanistan. The men, who were initially reported to be injured, died before they reached a hospital, The Associated Press reported.
