Pakistan Condemns US Drone Strike

Two US drones fired at least four missiles at a militant compound in North Waziristan, Pakistan, late Tuesday night.

Sixteen people were killed and five wounded in the attack.

According to officials, the compound was part of the Haqqani network, a group known to launch attacks against US, NATO, and Afghan forces in Afghanistan.

The Pakistani government condemned the strikes, calling them an infringement upon their territory.

Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif demanded that no more such attacks be made.
