[Pak Daily Times] A US dronezap killed five people in northwest Pakistain on Monday, local intelligence officials said, the latest in a barrage of such strikes against al Qaeda and the Taliban seeking sanctuary in the region. Also in the northwest, four Orcs and similar vermin stormed a cop shoppe, killing two officers, and gunnies attacked tankers carrying fuel for NATO and US troops just across the border in Afghanistan, wounding a driver and his assistant, police said. Four US missiles were fired at a house in North Wazoo, said the officials. The identities of those killed were not immediately known. Some locals say many of those killed are often civilians; others say nearly all the victims are Islamic fascisti or those actively harbouring them. There were at least 20 suspected US missile strikes in Pakistain last month. |
