A rescue official says the death toll from an oil tanker fire in Pakistan has risen to 148, with dozens more in critical condition.
The disaster occurred when hundreds of residents of a nearby village gathered at the site of an overturned oil tanker to collect the leaking fuel. Its believed that a spark from the many cars and motorcycles that raced to the scene ignited the fuel.
