At least two suspected militants were killed and one injured when drones fired missiles at a compound in Karezai Pal, Wana, South Waziristan Agency on Sunday, Express News reported.
“A US drone fired two missiles at a vehicle and at least two militants were killed and one was wounded,” a senior security official told AFP on condition of anonymity.
“The militants had just parked their vehicle outside the main gate of a compound and had asked for drinking water from inside. Just when they were drinking water standing on the road, drones fired two missiles.”
Their identities were not known but initial information indicated that they were not locals, the official added.
A militant source who called AFP from an unknown location also confirmed the missile strike and casualties.
This is the second drone strike this month and the first in the South Waziristan Agency this year.
On September 24, at least 10 suspected militants, including foreign fighters, were killed and two injured in a US predator strike in North Waziristan Agency.
