Officials in northwest Pakistan say a suspected U.S. drone strike has killed at least six militants in a tribal district, along the Afghan border.

Authorities say two missiles were fired Friday in the strike on North Waziristan's Dargah Mandi, an area known as a stronghold of the al-Qaida-linked Haqqani network.
