Suspected US drone attack kills 12 in Pakistan
Suspected US missiles slammed into a training camp run by Pakistani Taliban leader Baitullah Mehsud on Tuesday, killing at least 12 militants in the latest in a flurry of strikes against him and his followers, intelligence officials said.
Five foreigners were among the dead in the attack in South Waziristan close to the Afghan border, the officials said, but their nationalities were not known. Top Arab leaders of the al-Qaeda terror network are believed to be hiding in the region, as well as scores of militants from nearby countries, especially Afghanistan and Uzbekistan. (AP)
