PESHAWAR, Pakistan (AP) — Two Pakistani intelligence officials say an American drone has fired two missiles at a home near the Afghan border, killing four foreign militants.

The officials say the strike took place before dawn Wednesday near Miran Shah, the main town in the North Waziristan tribal region.

The nationality of the slain men was not immediately known and the officials said they were trying to get more details.

The officials spoke on the condition of anonymity as they were not authorized to speak to media.
