US missile strikes kill 10 in NWA
MIRANSHAH (AFP) Two US missile strikes killed at least 10 militants in North Waziristan on Wednesday.
The first attack struck Hamzoni, a village in North Waziristan, where five missiles slammed into two vehicles at around 7:15 am, a senior security official told AFP.
Five militants were killed in the missile strike, the official said. The second attack took place in Myzer Madhakhel, another village in North Waziristan, at around 8:00 am. At least five foreign militants travelling in a pick-up truck were killed, the official said.
The exact identity and nationalities of the foreign militants was unclear and it was not immediately known whether they included any high-value targets, but other security officials confirmed the same death toll.
