At least two Afghan citizens were killed after a landslide in the Khyber Torkham border region of Pakistan on Tuesday, Reuters reported, citing a local official. 

The landslide occurred in the early hours of Tuesday on the main route connecting Pakistan with Afghanistan during a thunder and lightning storm.

More than 20 trucks were buried and dozens more people are feared trapped, Abdul Nasir Khan, deputy commissioner of the Khyber district, told Reuters, adding the number of casualties could rise.

Photos shared by officials showed truck containers mostly buried in huge piles of rocks.
