Two suspected US drone attacks in northwest Pakistan have killed at least six suspected pro-Taliban fighters, according to intelligence and security officials.
A pilotless aircraft fired missiles at two targets in North Waziristan within an hour of each other on Wednesday, the officials said.
In the first raid, four missiles were fired at a vehicle, leveling a nearby home near Miran Shah, the main town in North Waziristan.
The second strike occurred about 50 minutes later, when three missiles were fired at another vehicle in the town of Madakhel, about 40km west of Miran Shah.
The latest attacks came a day after a US drone killed at least 11 people in compounds near the village of Datta Khel, west of Miran Shah.
The US does not publically talk about drone strikes but such incidents occur regularly, targeting Taliban commanders in Pakistan's semi-autonomous tribal belt.
