US Predators struck in Pakistan's tribal areas for the fifth time in six days, killing four "militants" in the Taliban stronghold of North Waziristan.
The unmanned CIA-operated Predators, or the more deadly Reapers, fired several missiles at a vehicle as it was moving in the village of Mubarak Shah in the Mir Ali area of North Waziristan, according to SAMAA (http://www.samaa.tv/newsdetail.aspx?ID=38381&CID=1). The Associated Press reported (http://www.dawn.com/2011/10/31/us-missiles-kill-four-in-north-waziristan.html) that four "militants" were killed in the attack
The identities of the four militants killed were not disclosed. No senior Taliban or al Qaeda leaders are reported to have been killed.
Today's strike is the fifth in a recent flurry of attacks. In the past six days, the US launched two attacks in South Waziristan and another three in North Waziristan.
