Tejinder Singh - AHN News Correspondent
Washington, D.C., United States (AHN) - The United States on Thursday refused to get bogged down by the unilateral decision by Pakistan to shut down supply routes to the NATO led-ISAF forces in Afghanistan, in retaliation for an air strike.
 
 U.S. Department of Defense spokesman Col. Dave Lapan told journalists at the Pentagon that Pakistani border troops fired at U.S. helicopters and the fire was returned in self-defense.
 
 Citing from a statement “that the Pakistanis put out,” Lapan said, “their forces used rifle fire at the helicopters as a warning and if you fire on a helicopter in a combat zone, they usually take that as hostile and return fire.”
 
 On the question of failure in communications between two sides, Lapan noted that there is a process which is trying to determine “how this happened, why this happened, whether protocols were followed or not.”
 
 During regular state department briefing, PJ Crowley, the spokesman echoed the Pentagon assessment, “We have multiple routes to be able to resupply our forces in Afghanistan,” adding, “ISAF is working with the Pakistani Government to investigate the incident.”
 
 Asked to comment if this is a major disruption or not, Lapan said that it depends on the “duration” of closure of the busy border crossing known as Torkham Gate.
 
 “Right now too soon to tell because we don’t know how long that might last,” noted Lapan, adding, “We are in discussion with the Pakistani government and hope we can resolve the issue through discussion.”
 
 Depending on “the duration of the closure,” Lapan said the “trucks that are there might go to a holding area for a period of time till situation is either resolved or they are re-routed.”
 
 Although the U.S. is hoping the stoppage is “temporary,” Lapan said, “We hope that we are going to resolve the issue by discussing it with the Pakistanis,” reiterating, “But again we have other means of supplying our forces.”
 
 After the incident, ISAF issued a statement saying, “The aircraft received what the crews assessed as effective small arms fire from individuals just across the border in Pakistan. Operating in self defense, the ISAF aircraft entered into Pakistani airspace killing several armed individuals.” 
 
 “ISAF and Pakistani forces are reviewing the operational reporting,” the statement said, adding, “And we will work together to fully investigate this incident.”

THE WORK (AS DEFINED BELOW) IS PROVIDED UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS LICENSE ("LICENSE"). THE WORK IS PROTECTED BY COPYRIGHT AND/OR OTHER APPLICABLE
LAW. ANY USE OF THE WORK OTHER THAN AS AUTHORIZED UNDER THIS LICENSE OR COPYRIGHT LAW IS PROHIBITED.
BY EXERCISING ANY RIGHTS TO THE WORK PROVIDED HERE, YOU ACCEPT AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS OF THIS LICENSE. TO THE EXTENT THIS LICENSE
MAY BE CONSIDERED TO BE A CONTRACT, THE LICENSOR GRANTS YOU THE RIGHTS CONTAINED HERE IN CONSIDERATION OF YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF SUCH TERMS AND
CONDITIONS.
1. Definitions
	
"Collective Work" means a work, such as a periodical issue, anthology or encyclopedia, in which the Work in its entirety in
	unmodified form, along with one or more other contributions, constituting separate and independent works in themselves, are assembled into a
	collective whole. A work that constitutes a Collective Work will not be considered a Derivative Work (as defined below) for the purposes of this
	License.
	
"Derivative Work" means a work based upon the Work or upon the Work and other pre-existing works, such as a translation,
	musical arrangement, dramatization, fictionalization, motion picture version, sound recording, art reproduction, abridgment, condensation, or any
	other form in which the Work may be recast, transformed, or adapted, except that a work that constitutes a Collective Work will not be considered a
	Derivative Work for the purpose of this License. For the avoidance of doubt, where the Work is a musical composition or sound recording, the
	synchronization of the Work in timed-relation with a moving image ("synching") will be considered a Derivative Work for the purpose of this License.
	
"Licensor" means the individual, individuals, entity or entities that offers the Work under the terms of this License.

	License with respect to the Work, or who has received express permission from the Licensor to exercise rights under this License despite a previous
	violation.

	exercising Your rights under this License, You may not implicitly or explicitly assert or imply any connection with, sponsorship or endorsement by
