US drone strike kills 21 in northwest Pakistan

PESHAWAR, Pakistan - A US drone fired two missiles into Pakistan@@@s North Waziristan tribal region on the Afghan border on Wednesday, killing at least 21 suspected militants, including foreigners, local officials said, in one of the biggest attacks in weeks.
The drone targeted a house 3 km (2 miles) east of Miranshah, the main town of the region, known to be a hotbed of Taliban and al-Qaida militants.
"The dead included local Taliban as well as some Arabs and Uzbek nationals," one intelligence official in North Waziristan said, speaking on the condition of anonymity.
It was not immediately known if any high-profile militants were among the dead. Militants often dispute official account of such strikes.
