Suspected U.S. drone strike kills four in Pakistan
October 14, 2011
Pakistani security officials say a suspected U.S. drone strike on October 14 killed at least four militants in northwestern Pakistan.
The strike targeted a vehicle in a village about four kilometers west of Miranshah, the main town in North Waziristan.
It was the third such reported strike in 48 hours against suspected militants in the Waziristan region near the border with Afghanistan.
Officials said a commander in the Al-Qaeda-linked Haqqani network was slain on October 13 in similar strikes that killed several other militants.
