What Happened?
13 July 2013: A U.S. drone strike destroyed a motorcycle and partially destroyed nearby houses in the Khray Chila village of Musakki in Mirali Tehsil. This attack reportedly started at around 1325 hours.
There is contradiction in media reports about this attack. Xinhua reported that a motorcycle and a house had been separately targeted, killing 2 people in the former and 1 in the latter. An anonymous Pakistani official reported to the New York Times that the motorcycle was the target, but a house had been damaged, although they had no knowledge of casualties from the house.
The News reported that at least two people had been killed, although their identities have never been learned, nor their civilian or militant status.
