U.S. Drone Strikes Kill 8 Near Afghan-Pakistani Border 
-------------------------------------------------------


 
Two U.S. drone strikes killed up to eight people along the
Afghanistan-Pakistan border Saturday. The strikes reportedly targeted a
vehicle in North Waziristan, and a compound in the Khyber region.
Pakistani media identified the dead as suspected militants, including a
senior member of the newly created al-Qaeda in the Indian Subcontinent.
The attacks bring the total number of U.S. drone strikes in the area
last week to at least eight.
