Three killed in another US drone strike in Pakistan

A US drone strike in a Pakistani tribal area Thursday killed at least three people, the first such incident since a US official shot dead two men in Lahore last month.
  
The strike took place in the restive Datta Khel region, 25 kilometers (15 miles) west of Miranshah, the main town in North Waziristan tribal district bordering Afghanistan.
  
It was not immediately clear if there any high-value targets at the compound at the time of the attack. "Identities of those killed in the strike also could not be immediately known", a security official was quoted by AFP as saying.
