A US drone fired two missiles targeting a militant vehicle, killing at least four militants, a senior security official told AFP.
It was the fourth such attack reported in Pakistans tribal badlands on the Afghan border, which Washington has dubbed the global headquarters of al-Qaeda, since US commandos killed Osama bin Laden in a Pakistani city on May 2.
The new attack coincided with a joint sitting of parliament in Islamabad, where Pakistans intelligence chief Ahmad Shuja Pasha and army chief of staff Ashfaq Kayani were briefing lawmakers on the bin Laden operation.
