US missiles have killed 18 militants in Pakistan's tribal district of South Waziristan, destroying compounds and a vehicle in the deadliest drone strikes for months. Three strikes were reported just days after Pakistani officials said they believed senior Al-Qaeda commander Ilyas Kashmiri had died in a similar attack late Friday, also in South Waziristan which borders Afghanistan. afp
