Suspected U.S. Drone Strike Kills Three In Pakistan


Reports say that a suspected U.S. drone aircraft fired two missiles today in Pakistan's North Waziristan tribal region, killing at least three people.

Pakistani officials say the attack targeted a compound used by militants in Norak, a village some 20 kilometers east of the region's main town of Miranshah.

More than 900 people have been killed in nearly 100 drone strikes in Pakistan since August 2008.
