What Happened?
15 January 2010: A U.S. drone strike targeted an unknown house in the Shaktoi area of North Waziristan, some short hours after two earlier drone attacks that killed dozens of people.
The CIA alleged that it had successfully targeted and killed Taliban commanders Azmatullah Mawiya and Qari Hussein, however both commanders were later found to be alive, raising doubts about the militant status of the other victims.
The identity and nature of the casualties has never been documented.
