MIRAMSHAH, Oct 10: Five people were killed when a US drone fired missiles on a house in Mirali on Wednesday, only three days after PTI chief Imran Khan had led a peace march to the region against such attacks.

Local people said the unmanned US aircraft fired four missiles on the house in the village of Harmoz, about 35km from Miramshah, before dawn.

Five people were killed and the house was destroyed.

Soon after the attack, local people rushed to the house and retrieved the bodies.
