#2 According to another media report, tribesmen opened fire on drones in Samazwani in South Waziristan, forcing them to return to Afghanistan.

I'm not sure the drones were "forced" to return to Afghanistan, and I don't believe people firing AK-47s at a drone would be very effective. I do believe that firing on the drone does an excellent job of pinpointing "hostiles" active in Pakistan.
