Three dead in suspected US missile strike in Pakistan: official
AFP - 8 minutes ago
PESHAWAR, Pakistan (AFP) - - A suspected US missile strike has killed at least three people in a tribal area in northwest Pakistan known as a Taliban and Al-Qaeda stronghold, local officials said.
A security official told AFP that an unmanned CIA aircraft had fired three missiles in the Karikot area of South Waziristan.
One of the missiles hit a vehicle, killing all three people inside, a local government official said.
The other two missiles hit a house in the area, but details about casualties were not immediately available.
"We rushed out of our homes," resident Zar Wali told AFP, saying locals had been panicked by the powerful explosions.
Smoke was still billowing from the targeted house, he said.
