Islamabad: Two suspected US drone strikes on Tuesday killed 11 people on the mountainous Pakistan-Afghanistan border even as Pakistan cautioned the US to show restraint. Tuesday's strike was the third drone strike in the area in the last 24 hours. Geo News said the attack in Anjargi area targeted the hideouts of Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan, Jamat-ul-Ahrar and Haqqani network. On Monday evening, US drone strikes reportedly left nearly 20 militants dead. Pakistan Foreign Minister Khawaja Asif then cautioned the US that it should not conduct any attack in Afghanistan or Pakistan at a time when the Afghan peace talks had resumed in Oman.
