PESHAWAR, Pakistan, Sept 17 (Reuters) - A U.S. drone aircraft missile attack targeting a militant camp in Pakistan killed at least four people and wounded three, a Pakistani intelligence official in the South Waziristan region said. Officials said the drone fired four missiles as dusk fell on Baghar, a village in the mountains 55 km (35 miles) west of Wana, the main town in the region. Foreigners were among the fighters staying in the tents by the spring that runs through Baghar. U.S. commandos raided the nearby border village of Angor Adda on Sept. 3, and another helicopter-borne raid there was aborted on Monday after Pakistani troops and villagers opened fire, according to Pakistani officials.
