WASHINGTON, June 18, 2009 -- Newswire services this morning reported that Pakistani intelligence officials say a suspected U.S. missile strike has killed nine people in northwest Pakistan.

Authorities say at least four missiles hit near two villages west of Wana, a major town near the Afghan border in Pakistan's South Waziristan region, VOA News said.

Suspected U.S. drones are reported to have launched at least 30 missile attacks in Pakistan since the middle of last year.
