A series of U.S. drone strikes pummeled Pakistan this weekend. Corporate media reports say the dead were "local Taliban and fighters" or "suspected militants."
On Sunday, two separate drone attacks hit the North Waziristan are of the country. The first hit two vehicles, killing at least seven. The second targeted a home, killing at least three.
Sunday's attacks follow another drone strike in the southern province of Punjab on Saturday that killed at least 6.
Pakistan's Foreign Ministry said in a statement, "Pakistan has consistently maintained that these attacks are a violation of its sovereignty and territorial integrity, and are in contravention of international law."
Donald Trump’s attacks on democracy, justice, and a free press are escalating — putting everything we stand for at risk. We believe a better world is possible, but we can’t get there without your support. Common Dreams stands apart. We answer only to you — our readers, activists, and changemakers — not to billionaires or corporations. Our independence allows us to cover the vital stories that others won’t, spotlighting movements for peace, equality, and human rights. Right now, our work faces unprecedented challenges. Misinformation is spreading, journalists are under attack, and financial pressures are mounting. As a reader-supported, nonprofit newsroom, your support is crucial to keep this journalism alive. Whatever you can give — $10, $25, or $100 — helps us stay strong and responsive when the world needs us most. Together, we’ll continue to build the independent, courageous journalism our movement relies on. Thank you for being part of this community. |
