 ISLAMABAD (AP) - A suspected U.S. missile strike killed two alleged militants Thursday in northwestern Pakistan, intelligence officials said, while Pakistani soldiers battled the Taliban in an insurgent stronghold elsewhere along the Afghan border.
The drone-fired missiles struck Naurak village in North Waziristan tribal area overnight, the two officials said on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to media. A local resident's house and a car were damaged.
However, local tribesman Inayat Wazir told The Associated Press on the phone that the house was empty and that no one died.
