At least nine suspected Taliban militants were killed and several more injured in a US drone attack in Pakistan's north-western region on Wednesday, security officials said. The attack took place in North Waziristan, one of the seven tribal districts along the Afghan border, according to a report of DPA. "A US drone fired two missiles into a compound in the early morning hours," said a local official who spoke on condition of anonymity. "The locals have pulled out nine bodies and around a dozen injured from the rubble of demolished house."
