“Pakistani soldiers practised shooting at pilotless ‘drone’ aircraft on Friday, the military said a day after the government lodged a protest with the U.S. ambassador over drone missile strikes in Pakistani territory. Anti-aircraft guns and short-range surface-to-air missiles were used during the exercise conducted at a desert range near the city of Muzaffargarh in the central Pubjab province. … Pakistan is bristling over a series of missile strikes by U.S. drones targeting al Qaeda and Taliban militants in the lawless tribal regions along the Afghan border in recent weeks.” (11/21/08) Link: http://tinyurl.com/696pol Filed under: RRND News | Report Bad Link Bookmark this post in Furl or Del.icio.us | |
