A convoy of NATO supplies was hit by a road-side mine blast in the southern Paktia province on Thursday morning

The incident occured at 10am on Thursday at the province's Sit-e-Kandow district when a NATO supply convoy was passing by the area, a spokesman for the governor of Paktia, Rohullah Samoon told TOLOnews.

No one is killed or wounded in the incident, he added.

Road-side mine blasts are planted by insurgents to target Afghan and foreign soldiers, but civilians are often the main victims.
