At least 10 suspected militants were killed Sunday in two suspected US drone strikes in Pakistan's troubled north-western tribal region along the Afghan border, dpa quoted security officials as saying. The first attack killed at least seven and hours later a second killed at least three in the Manna area of North Waziristan, according to the officials speaking on condition of anonymity. In the first drone strike four missiles were fired at two vehicles carrying supporters of Bahadur group. "Our information shows that seven militants have been killed as two more bodies were pulled out of the charged vehicles," one official said. Hours later, two missiles were fired on a compound in a second drone strike, killing at least three suspected Punjabi Taliban members, another security official said. On Saturday, at least five people were killed when drones targeted a compound in the Shawal area of the district.
