What Happened?

20 June 2011: US drone missiles struck a vehicle in the Khardand area of the Kurram Agency (One of Pakistan’s seven federally administered tribal areas). The first missile is reported to have killed at least 5 people.

A double-tap missile struck minutes later, reportedly killing two civilians involved in rescue efforts.

Contrary to Western media claims about killing militants, the local Express Tribune reported that the deceased were all local tribesmen / civilians.
