What Happened?
08 December 2009: A U.S. drone strike targeted a ‘private’ car in the Spalaga area of North Waziristan. There has never been any documentation of the victims, although the CIA alleged that it had targeted the Al Qaeda operative Saleh Al-Somali.
Data compiled by the FATA administration claims that three local people were killed in this attack, raising the likelihood that this strike had innocent casualties.
