A suspected U.S. missile struck a car in northwest Pakistan's tribal region Friday, killing at least three men in a second attack in less than a day, local TV channels reported.
The morning attack by a drone aircraft struck a vehicle carrying militants in Navana village in North Waziristan. This was the second drone attack in the area during the last 24 hours.
At least three people were killed and two others wounded on Thursday in a U.S. drone attack.
Sources said that shortly after Friday's attack, Taliban arrived at the scene of the attack and shifted the bodies to an undisclosed location.
The U.S. drones regularly hit hideouts of the militants in the Pakistani tribal region, which Washington considers as the center of Taliban and al-Qaeda militants. Pakistan opposes the U.S. strikes inside the country's tribal regions and seeks the drone technology. But the U.S. does not accept Islamabad's request, according to reports.
