At least 15 people were killed and four others injured when the CNG cylinder of a passenger van exploded in Pakistan's northwest tribal area of Nouth Waziristan on Sunday evening, local media reported. Dunya TV said that a passenger van carrying over 20 people was on its way to Bannu from Miran Shah when its gas cylinder exploded in Khajori area of Nouth Waziristan, a tribal area located on Pakistan-Afghanistan border. Some earlier reports said that the accident took place in South Waziristan but rescue teams and political administration later confirmed that it happened in North Waristan Agency adjacent to South Waziristan. The injured people were shifted to nearby state-run hospital by rescue teams. Rescue workers said that the incident happened due to poorly- maintained vehicle. All the killed and injured people belonged to North Waziristan who were going to the neighboring district of Bannu.
