Five killed in NWA drone attack
Five more people were killed and six others sustained injuries in yet another US drone attack on a remote village in Dattakhel Tehsil in the troubled North Waziristan tribal region on Saturday night.
Tribal sources said a pilotless CIA-operated spy plane fired two missiles that struck a house at Ismailkhel village near the border with Afghanistan's Paktika province.
They said the house was frequently visited by militants and those killed were suspected to be fighters affiliated with North Waziristan Taliban commander Hafiz Gul Bahadur.
They said villagers and the Taliban started the rescue work and retrieved five mutilated bodies of suspected militants from the rubble of the building, which was flattened in the attack.
