PTI decides to re-open Nato supply routes

ISLAMABAD: The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf has decided to re-open Nato supply routes through Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, which it blocked in protest against a US drone attack which killed key militant commanders in Hangu district.

Imran Khan, who has long been opposing the US attacks in Pakistan’s tribal region, took the decision to allow the Nato trucks, in a meeting of the PTI on Thursday, Geo News reported.

Sources said that the decision was taken in the light of the Peshawar High Court orders, which had termed the blocked as illegal.

The PTI has been staging sit-ins to block Nato trucks carrying supplies for foreign troops stationed in Afghanistan.
