Death toll reaches to 25 in US drone attack
MIRANSHAH: Three women and five children among 25 people were killed while several others injured in a US drone attack on a compound in North Waziristan, Geo News reported.

US drones fired five missiles on a compound in Spinwam, 40 kilometres (25 miles) northeast of Miranshah.

It was the first missile strike to hit the North Waziristan since March 17 when a drone attack killed 39 people, including many civilians, causing a diplomatic furor over the unpopular US campaign.
