MIR ALI, Pakistan -- U.S. drone aircraft fired four missiles at a building i
n a militant sanctuary in northwestern Pakistan on Thursday, killing 38 peop
le in an unusually deadly strike, Pakistani officials said.
A senior Pakistani intelligence official said the dead were militants meetin
g to discuss plans to send fighters to Afghanistan; the local governor said
they were innocent tribal elders and police.
Masood Kausar, the governor of northwest Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, condem
ned the strikes and said the families of the victims should receive compensa
tion.
"We have criticized drone attacks before and we will continue to raise our v
oice to condemn these attacks," said Kausar.
The senior Pakistani security official denied the governor's accusations and
said they were likely driven by Taliban propaganda. The militants claimed a
fter the strikes that innocent tribesmen were killed, he said, speaking on c
ondition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the issue.
The missiles hit a compound in the Datta Khel area of the North Waziristan t
ribal region -- the main sanctuary for al-Qaida and Taliban fighters along t
he Afghan border, said Pakistani intelligence officials, also speaking on co
ndition of anonymity. While it was unclear exactly how many militants were a
t the meeting, it appeared that almost all were killed or wounded, said the
officials. A total of 38 people were killed and seven wounded, they said.
Sponsored Links The militants were allied with Hafiz Gul Bahadur, a powerful
Pakistani Taliban commander in the area who has focused his efforts on figh
ting foreign troops in Afghanistan, said the officials.
The most senior militant killed in the attack was Sharabat Khan, Bahadur's t
op commander for the Datta Khel area, who was leading the meeting, said the
officials. Several foreign militants were also killed, they said.
The United States began firing missiles at militant targets in Pakistan in 2
004, but the pace of the attacks picked up dramatically in 2008. Last year,
there were around 120 strikes, which are believed to be carried out by unman
ned drone aircraft launched either from Afghanistan or from inside Pakistan.
There have been around 20 so far this year.
Most of the strikes this year and last have been in North Waziristan.
