According to local and international media, the house of Khanadan Khan Dawar in Mir Ali, North Waziristan, was attacked by a US drone, resulting in up to seven militant fatalities and four people wounded.

The New York Times, who cited Pakistani security officials, reported that the village was struck by “two missiles fired from an American drone aircraft.”

The death toll spanned from four to seven among the reports, though all agreed that the fatalities were militants.

While some reported that four of the killed were foreigners, possibly Uzbeks and the remaining were locals, the Bureau of Investigative Journalism  published a secret Pakistani record of CIA drone strikes and casualties in January 2014, where is appeared that: “reportedly the killed militants were Uzbeks.”

Moreover, between three and four “people” were left wounded. Despite the weak reporting, they will be considered as being possible civilians will until further details appear.
