Pakistani intelligence officials say a suspected U.S. drone attack in the South Waziristan tribal region in the northwest has killed at least six people and wounded another nine.
Two intelligence officials say Thursday's attack targeted a suspected militant hide-out in the stronghold of top Taliban commander Waliur Rehman. The officials said their information showed that Taliban fighters were removing the bodies from a destroyed compound.
The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they are not authorized to release the information.
