11 more killed in US Missile Strike in Pakistan

ISLAMABAD (AP) — Pakistani intelligence officials say suspected U.S. missiles have hit a Taliban target in northwest Pakistan. There was no immediate word on casualties.

The two officials say the attack took place early Friday in South Waziristan. The region is part of the lawless tribal belt along Pakistan's border with Afghanistan where top Taliban and al-Qaida leaders are believed to be hiding.

The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the media.
