ISLAMABAD, Oct 3 (Reuters) - A missile fired by a U.S. drone aircraft killed at least four people in a Pakistani tribesman's house in North Waziristan, Pakistani intelligence officials said on Friday. The officials said the missile struck around 9:30 p.m. (1530 GMT) in the village of Mohammad Khel, 30 km west of Miranshah, the main town in North Waziristan, a region known as a hotbed of Taliban and al Qaeda support. A Pakistani military spokesman said he had no information on the strike. Earlier on Friday, Pakistani intelligence officials reported another U.S. airstrike on the North Waziristan village of Datta Khel, closer to the Afghan border. The spokesman contradicted their account, saying it was a NATO airstrike on a target across the border in Afghanistan.
