At around 6.30pm, missiles hit a house and a vehicle parked outside it. The death toll was initially put at three, but later rose six; four were reportedly injured. All the dead were alleged to be militants. ‘Five militants were killed in the strike. One missile hit the compound and the other hit a nearby vehicle. Three people sitting in the car were killed and two others were killed in the compound,’ a security official told AFP. Four years after this strike, the Bureau published a list of drone strikes and casualties compiled by Pakistani officials. It records nine ‘locals’ killed in this attack.
