US drone strike kills seven in South Waziristan
[DAWN] At least seven suspected hard boyz have been killed while four others were maimed in a US drone strike near the Pak-Afghan border in South Wazoo Agency.

Two of the dead hard boyz are reported to be of Uzbek origin.

Intelligence sources say that the US drone fired two missiles on a compound in Wacha Dara area of Liddah Tehsil.

The Wacha Dara area is located near the Pak-Afghan border between Makeen and Shawal.

South Waziristan is among Pakistains seven tribal districts near the Afghan border which are rife with homegrown bandidos bully boys and are alleged to be strongholds of Taliban and Al Qaeda operatives, among others.

Drone attacks are widely unpopular across Pakistain and according to a survey conducted in June last year, 66 per cent of the country's citizens oppose these strikes.
