 MIRANSHAH: A missile strike by a suspected US drone killed at least four militants Friday in a Pakistani tribal district known to be a stronghold of Al-Qaeda and the Taliban, an official said.
"A missile fired by a suspected US drone killed four people outside the town of Mir Ali in Miranshah tribal district," sources said.
Local officials confirmed the strike and said it targeted the houses of a suspected Taliban militant north of Mir Ali.
Many others were also injured in the attack. Taliban militants immediately surrounded the house and did not allow locals to come near the site, witnesses said. |  |
