Pakistan: US missiles kill 3 militants near Afghan border

ISLAMABAD - 30 November 2017: Pakistani intelligence officials said a suspected US drone strike had hit a militant compound near the Afghan border, killing three militants, ABC News reported Thursday.

Two officials say the drone fired two missiles at the Ghazni compound of the militant Haqqani network's commander Abdur Rasheed early in the morning on Thursday. The network is affiliated with the Taliban.

They said it's unclear if Rasheed was at the compound located on the Pesho Ghar mountain in the Kurram tribal region's Ghuzgari area.

Pakistan opposes drone strikes, saying they violate its sovereignty and claims it has eradicated militant sanctuaries there.
