According to details; a bomb planted by the Taliban exploded on Wednesday morning and destroyed the NATO convoy. 

At the time, the trucks were parked overnight in Samangan province, as they headed from Uzbekistan towards NATO forces in the south.

According to BBC; the fire caused by the bomb is still burning.

The explosive device was attached below one of the trucks, which were parked close together, an intelligence official said. 

"Since it was early in the morning, there were not a lot of people around. Otherwise, it could have caused a lot more casualties,'' the official told the BBC.
