DUSHANBE, November 21, 2011, Asia-Plus  -- Uzbek media outlets report an explosion has occurred on a railway connecting Uzbekistan with Afghanistan.

Uzbek news agency, Podrobno, reports the blast occurred on the Termez-Qurghon Tepa section (the Ghalaba-Amuzang stage) on the night of October 16-17.  No casualties were reported.

A special government commission has been set up to investigate the cause of the blast.

In the meantime, Uzbek media outlets report that the main version is that the explosion on the railway link connecting Uzbekistan with Afghanistan was a terrorist act.

Radio Liberty reports that rail link in question is one used by U.S. troops serving in Afghanistan.

They are looking for trouble. Don't get surprised to see Tajik name under so called "terrorist". They decided to bring pressure together with Russia I guess..
