Two suspected U.S. missile strikes targeting the same building reportedly killed at least eight people in North Waziristan, a region near Afghanistan.

Pakistani intelligence officials said that the first strike hit a house in the Ghulam Khan area, killing six people.

The officials did not know the identities of those killed but said they were militants.
