CIA drones killed at least five people in the latest strike on Datta Khel, according to initial strike reports. The attack reportedly hit a house and vehicle.

A security official told Reuters six local and foreign fighters were killed, citing intercepted Taliban communications. The targeted house was reportedly occupied by fighters from the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan.

This is the tenth strike in and around Datta Khel this year. The Pakistan military has been steadily pushing through North Waziristan in its ongoing military offensive against armed groups in the tribal agency. It has met with resistance in Datta Khel which was the scene of several air strikes and clashes between armed groups and the Pakistan Army.
