A project tracking drone
deaths in Pakistan
Drones hit at sunset, killing at least four people in the first strike for 24 days.
Less than a week after the strike, two alleged militants discussing the attack on Twitter claimed al Qaeda’s intelligence chief Abu Ubaydah Abdullah al Adam had died in the attack. This was the first CIA drone strike since Pakistan’s caretaker prime minister was chosen for the run-up to the May 11 general election.
