PESHAWAR: Six suspected militants were killed and several injured when US drones fired missiles on a vehicle and a shop at two different places in Khysore village, near North Waziristan’s Mirali town, on Monday.
The reports from Mir Ali said that a US drone fired missiles at a vehicle, killing three militants and wounding another two. The dead bodies and injured were shifted to an unknown place.
In another attack, a drone fired two missiles on a shop that killed three men. Taliban militants cordoned off the site soon after the incident. Locals said the dead and injured militants included foreigners and Al Qaeda members.
