Being the fifth drone attack in four days, the Wednesday strike targeted the North
Wazoo region near the border with Afghanistan.In an earlier attack on Tuesday, an unmanned US aerial vehicle fired missiles at a compound in the village of Kund Ghar of the mountainous Shawal area in the North Waziristan, claiming the lives of at least six people.
In reaction to the rising fatalities of the recent spell of US aerial attacks, Paks erupted into the streets in Multan in Punjab province on Wednesday, shouting anti-US slogans and burning a US flag.
Fearing the rapid escalation of US fatal drone strikes, hundreds of thousands of men, women and kiddies are fleeing their homes in North Waziristan, which borders Afghanistan, to the city of Bannu, located some 240 kilometers (150 miles) north of the capital Islamabad, and other neighboring regions.
