MIR ALI, Pakistan (AP) — Pakistani intelligence officials say a possible US drone strike has killed two more suspected foreign militants in northwestern Pakistan.

The officials say the drone fired two missiles at the suspected militants as they were riding on a motorcycle in Doga Mada Khel village in the North Waziristan tribal area.

The attack came several hours after a drone fired two missiles at a vehicle and a house in the village, killing four suspected militants.

The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk to the media.
