U.S. Drone Strikes Kill 27 in Pakistan 
---------------------------------------


 
At least 27 people have been killed in three consecutive days of U.S.
drone strikes inside Pakistan. More than half of the victims — 15
people — were killed earlier today when U.S. missiles hit a
village in North Waziristan. The attacks bring to at least seven the
number of U.S. drone strikes in Pakistan over the past two weeks. U.S.
and Pakistani officials say militants were targeted, but it is unclear
if any civilians were killed.
