Another 20 Bites The Dust

No one seems to know what exactly happened or what(who) exactly was blown up. My guess is the grim reaper had a hand in this.

SOUTH WAZIRISTAN: The death toll in Wana Missile strike, the main town in the tribal district of South Waziristan, has increased to 20, the sources said.

Seven others were also injured when a missile struck a suspected militant compound in a lawless Pakistani tribal area on the Afghan border Sunday.

Residents said they heard several blasts after several missiles fired from an unknown site hit the home of a local tribesman in a village near Wana.

Foreigners linked with Taliban and Al-Qaeda militants were believed to be staying at the compound in Doog village, the residents said.



“Militants have cordoned the blast site and are taking out bodies from the rubble,” one local tribesman said.

“The missile has left only part of a boundary wall intact and turned the compound into a pile of debris,” he said.

“Body parts were flung into the air and were lying in nearby farmlands,” he added. Pakistan’s chief military spokesman major general Athar Abbas said that he had received reports about blasts, but had no details about casualties yet.
