A harmless looking farm cart trundling along a country road between Kyaukpadung

A harmless looking farm cart trundling along a country road between Kyaukpadung and Poaywa was sighted by RAF Beaufighters flying overhead,
One of the pilots was suspicious of the load on the cart and decided to attack it
After the first burst of fire, the cart exploded and caught fire.
Clouds of smoke and flame showed that the Beaufighter had hit a supply of oil on its way to the Japanese fighting zone.
Photo shows: Smoke rising in a huge black pillar as the
carts load of petrol burns on the road.
