Pakistan, May 15 (ANI): Two missiles, suspected to have been fired by a U.S. drone, hit a house in the village of Damadola in the Bajaur tribal region on May 14. The missiles killed eighteen people including foreign militants, three children and a woman.

Angry residents of the village on the Afghan border stopped government officials on May 15 from approaching the ruins of a house struck by the missiles. The house, which residents said belonged to an ethnic Pashtun tribesman, and an adjoining mosque were almost completely destroyed.
