US drone strike in North Waziristan kills five Uzbek 'militants'
2015-05-17
[DAWN] A US drone strike late on Saturday left five suspected Lions of Islam dead and two others injured in North Wazoo Agency, sources told DawnNews.

It further said that two missiles were fired that hit two houses in Warokey Mandi area of Shawal Tehsil of North Waziristan Agency, a tribal region where the military has since June been battling Lions of Islam linked to the Taliban and Al-Qaeda.

Meanwhile,

official sources claimed that those suspected Lions of Islam killed in the US drone strike were Uzbek nationals.

The area is generally off-limits to journalists, making it difficult to independently verify the number and identity of the dead.

"The US drone fired two missiles targeting a krazed killer compound, killing four rebels," a security bigshot said on condition of anonymity.
