U.S. Drone Strike Kills 17 in Pakistan 
---------------------------------------


 
A U.S. drone strike in Pakistan has killed at least 17 people. Reuters
is reporting most of the dead were fighters with the Haqqani militant
group. The attack in the North Waziristan region was the deadliest by
the United States in Pakistan this year, and the second since Prime
Minister Nawaz Sharif took office last month. Sharif has called for an
end to the drone strikes.
