BBC - 'Missile hit' on Pakistan village
At least five people are reported to have been killed in a missile attack in Pakistan's North Waziristan region.

Local people say the missile was launched from an unmanned drone aircraft and that the dead were believed to be militants.

The Pakistan military says it was not involved in the incident in the village of Danday Darpakhel.

In Washington the Pentagon has denied that a US drone plane from Afghanistan was involved.
