US missiles kill 8 in northwest Pakistan
US missiles struck near Ghulam Khan in North Waziristan killing eight militants, part of a broader, intensified drone campaign into Afghanistan. The attack followed other strikes this week and more than 110 drone strikes this year, with Islamabad protesting sovereignty while tribesmen criticize the raids. A separate blast hit Lakki Marwat police HQ, killing a bystander, and a separate bomb targeted a NATO convoy in Chaman, wounding a passer-by as protests rose. The Pakistani Taliban freed 23 tribesmen seized three weeks earlier after they were judged by a Taliban court and subjected to cold-water punishment. Tariq warned against North Waziristan operations.
