2 US missile attacks kill 6 near Afghan border
None
Two US missile strikes killed six alleged Afghan Taliban fighters in a Pakistani tribal region Wednesday, intelligence officials said, just days after Pakistani authorities asked for greater limits on such attacks.
The drone-fired assaults in the South Waziristan tribal area, which borders Afghanistan, also were the first since a mid-March strike that Pakistan's army chief said took out dozens of peaceful tribesmen. A US official denied innocent people were targeted. (AP)
