Drone strike kills 5 in North Waziristan

Peshawar: At least five people were killed in a US drone strike in Mir Ali area of the North Waziristan agency, an area bordering Pakistan and Afghanistan, sources said on Tuesday.

According to the sources, the unmanned plane fired four missiles on a house in Harmuz area of Mir Ali, killing five people and injuring several others.

“More drones are still flying in the air making it difficult for the rescuers to save others.”

Attacks by an unmanned American aircraft are deeply unpopular in Pakistan, which says they violate its sovereignty and fan anti-US sentiment, but US officials are said to believe the attacks are too important to give up.

Recently, Pakistan Tehrik-i-Insaaf carried out a peace march towards South Waziristan, protesting against the US drone attacks, which had killed several innocent people.

The govt. should come ahead to stop such drone attacked
which is continuing since long, a lot of human lives are lost but no voice has
been raised in UN for such massacre. The motive behind this attacked is given
that it is for terrorist who fights with US and its coalition war partner.
Whatever the situation is, drone attack is not targeting specially to the terrorist
but civilian are also killed, the missile or bullet does not ask your name it
is pointed and remote button is pressed to fire. It is man who is controlling
the small spy plan for this guided attack. For God sake stop it and do not do
more killing.
