TANK: Traffic remained suspended after a landslide blocked a road between South Waziristan and Tank districts in the Khargi area, an official said on Monday. Tank Deputy Commissioner Muhammad Shoaib Khan said the landslide struck the Tank-Waziristan Road at Khargi area due to overnight rain, suspending the flow of traffic.
