QUETTA: A driver was killed and a cleaner sustained bullet injuries in an attack on a Nato oil tanker in the Dasht area of Mastung on Tuesday.

According to Levis Force, the tanker carrying fuel for International Security Assistance Force (Isaf) was on route to Afghanistan from Karachi when armed men opened indiscriminate fire at the vehicle in the Dasht region.

Resultantly, the driver of a tanker died on the spot while a cleaner sustained bullet wounds.
