Missle Strike Kills 11 Pakistan:Update Now its 24 Dead in Attack on Taliban Camp

KARACHI, Pakistan (CNN) -- A suspected U.S. missile attack killed 11 people Thursday in northwest Pakistan, an official said.

Pakistani security agents and the militant official said there were no senior militants, or "high value targets" among the dead. The Taliban official said those killed were Pakistani and Afghan
