DERA ISMAIL KHAN, Pakistan (AP) — Intelligence officials say a suspected U.S. missile strike has killed four militants in northwestern Pakistan.
The attack Sunday evening in North Waziristan was the second in less than 12 hours in Pakistan’s militant-infested tribal region along the Afghan border.
The officials said the unmanned aircraft fired two missiles at a house near Miran Shah, the main town in North Waziristan. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk to the media.
Earlier Sunday, a U.S. missile strike killed five militants in South Waziristan, previously the headquarters of Pakistani Taliban.
