What Happened?
17 March 2010: A U.S. drone strike targeted two cars in the Hamzoni area of North Waziristan Agency. The first two missiles failed to hit their target, prompting the car to speed away until it was destroyed by the third missile. It was alleged by the CIA that all casualties were foreigners and militants.
It was reported that a nearby house, which was likely not the intended target, was also destroyed. However, there is no independent confirmation on any of the casualties, leaving this attack undocumented.
