US, ISAF strikes kill nine in Waziristan
2008-10-12
A suspected United States missile strike killed four people and International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) claimed it had killed five Taliban inside Pakistan on Saturday. "Two missiles struck a compound just outside Miranshah [late on Saturday]. Four people were killed...," a security official told AFP.

The ISAF said in a statement that its troops in Afghanistan had killed five Taliban inside Pakistan, adding the Pakistani military had confirmed the killing of five Taliban. The Pakistan army could not be reached for comment. The ISAF statement said its troops located three Taliban preparing for a rocket attack, and killed them on the Pakistani side of the border. Within an hour of the first attack, another group of the Taliban was found preparing an attack on a nearby Pakistan security post, the statement said, adding they were killed by artillery fire.
