Pakistani intelligence officials say a suspected U.S. missile strike has killed at least nine people, including foreigners, along the Afghan border.

The officials say an unmanned aircraft launched Friday's attack on the home of an Afghan in North Waziristan in the village of Mohammed Khel.

Pakistani media say at least 20 people were killed, but the military has not confirmed the reports.

Intelligence officials say in a separate attack in North Waziristan Friday, suspected U.S. fighter jets killed two women and a child.

Pakistan's army spokesman, Major General Athar Abbas, denied the incident took place in Pakistan, saying international troops were carrying out an operation in Afghanistan.
