US drones targeted a vehicle and a compound in North Waziristan tribal region of Pakistan today, killing six suspected militants, officials said.
The CIA-operated spy planes fired six missiles at the house and the vehicle in Datta Khel area, which has witnessed numerous drone attacks over the past two years.
The missile strike occurred in an area located a few kilometres from Miranshah, the main town in the tribal district.
Two suspected militants were injured in the attack, officials told TV news channels.
The large number of missiles fired seemed to indicate an important militant was targeted.
