A US missile strike Wednesday killed five people in Miranshah - hours after the Taliban blew up more Nato tankers. A security official said two missiles hit a militant compound in Miranshah, the main town in tribal north Waziristan, where foreign militants are believed to have hatched a plan to launch Mumbai-style attacks on European cities.
Smoke could be seen rising half a kilometre from the struck building, which was cordoned off by militants, residents said. Security officials initially put the toll at four militants killed but later said it had risen to five. One official said that two people were wounded.
