Pakistani troops opened fire at two helicopters that were drawn to be from NATO. This lead to a brief fire fight between the troops and NATO forces, resulting in the troops being wounded. The location of this event took place in Admi Kot Post, (northern territory in Pakistan). The issue that the Troops had was the simple fact that the NATO helicopters had crossed from Afghanistan into Pakistan. The Osama Bin Laden raid earlier this month, has lead to Pakistan being on high notice for every little action towards their country. Pakistan and NATO have been feuding since last September as NATO killed two Pakistani troops in a so called "clash". Knowing there is conflict between the USA and Pakistan has lead Senator John Kerry to Pakistan in an attempt to ease the conflict between the two. The mini military conflict between Pakistan and NATO has not necessarily made things easier in the relationship with the United States.
