Driver walks past burned trucks after militant attack at terminal on outskirts of Peshawar, 13 May 2009

Pakistani police say dozens of suspected Taliban militants have attacked a depot handling supplies for NATO troops in Afghanistan.

Police say the militants destroyed eight vehicles at the terminal outside the northwestern Pakistani city of Peshawar. But officials say no NATO supplies were lost in the attack.

The violence comes following days of a Pakistani military offensive against Taliban militants in the area. On Tuesday, army helicopters dropped troops behind Taliban positions in the Piochar area, the suspected stronghold of Taliban commander Maulana Fazlullah.

Military officials said 751 militants have been killed since the offensive began last week.

Separately Tuesday, Pakistan's President Asif Ali Zardari appealed to the world to help more than one million civilians displaced by the fighting.

The United Nations refugee agency airlifted 120 tons of relief supplies into Pakistan Tuesday, including mosquito nets, plastic sheets for emergency shelters and two portable warehouses.
