US Missile Strike Kills 3 in Pakistan

   VOA News 02 October 2010

   Officials  in  Pakistan say a suspected U.S. missile strike has killed
   at least three people in the northwest region of the country.
   Authorities say four missiles hit a house Saturday near the Datta Khel
   village in the North Waziristan tribal district.
   The   missile   strike  comes  amid  tensions  between  Islamabad  and
   Washington.   Pakistan  has  blocked  a  vital  supply route for NATO
   forces  in  Afghanistan, in an apparent retaliation for a cross-border
   NATO air strike that Pakistan says killed three of its soldiers.

   Some information for this report was provided by AP and AFP.
