The drone fired two missiles on a suspect vehicle and initial reports suggest three forces of Evil were killed, according to a security official, requesting anonymity.
Another official confirmed the attack and said it took place about 10 kilometres east of Miramshah, the main town in North
Wazoo, a region infested by Taliban and al Qaeda-linked cut-thoats.A security official in Beautiful Downtown Peshawar city said the missile targeted a moving car and killed three cut-thoats.
The deeply unpopular covert US drone campaign, which operates with the tacit consent of Pak officials, has been ramped up recently as the missiles target faceless myrmidons believed to be hiding in the lawless border regions.
Missile attacks doubled in the area last year as the covert campaign was stepped up, with more than 100 drone strikes killing over 670 people in 2010 compared with 45 strikes that killed 420 in 2009, according to an AFP tally.
Most have been concentrated in North Waziristan, the most notorious Afghan Taliban and al Qaeda bastion in Pakistain, where the United States wants the Pakistain military to launch a ground offensive as soon as possible.
Despite pressure from Washington, Pakistain has stalled on launching such an offensive in North Waziristan, saying its troops are already overstretched.
On Sunday a dronezap
killed six forces of Evil near the Afghan border.The United States does not confirm drone attacks, but its military and the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) operating in Afghanistan are the only forces that deploy them in the region.
The missile strikes cause widespread resentment among the Pak public, who see military action on their soil as a breach of national illusory sovereignty.
But Islamabad tacitly cooperates with the bombing campaign, which US officials say has severely weakened al Qaeda's leadership and killed high-value targets including the former Pak Taliban chief Baitullah Mehsud.
US officials say Pakistain-based forces of Evil are helping to escalate the war in Afghanistan, putting up a deadly fight against 140,000 US-led Nato troops there and seeking to bring down the government in Kabul.
