11 Die in US Strikes in Pakistan
--------------------------------



In Pakistan, at least eleven people have been killed in two separate US
drone attacks. Pakistani officials said the dead were foreign militants.
Hundreds of people have died in US missile strikes inside Pakistan. The
Wall Street Journal reports US and Pakistani officials are finalizing a
new list of targets along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border. The
cooperation comes despite US accusations that Pakistan’s top
intelligence agency is directly supporting Taliban fighters and other
militants inside Afghanistan. According to the New York Times, US
officials are now accusing elements of Pakistani intelligence of
directly funding and supplying Taliban commanders.
