Suicide attack on police station kills 4 others

AP, ATP, Peshawar/ Mingora
Suspected US missile strikes killed five people in a Pakistani tribal area considered a haven for die Taliban and al-Qaeda, while a suicide bombing left four security personnel dead, officials said.
In another sign of how violence and economic problems are shaking confidence in the nuclear armed country, Pakistan's currency slumped to an all-time low against the United States dollar.
The suspected US spy drone fired two missiles on Thursday into a Pakistani tribal area that is a known al-Qaeda and Taliban hub,
killing at least five people, security officials said
The missile strike hit a house in the South Waziristan region of Pakistan’s wild border belt, considered a likely hiding place for al-Qaida leaders Osama bln Laden and Ayman al-Zawahri and a stronghold of Pakistani Taliban chief Baitullah Mehsud.
"Two missiles were fired, completely destroying the house. First reports confirm five dead," a security official told AFP on condition of anonymity.
The exact target of the attack was unclear, he added.
There was no immediate confirmation of the strike from the
Pakistani military or from the US-led coalition in Afghanistan.
A local resident said two spy drones were still circling over the scene and people feared further missile strikes.
Meanwhile, a suicide bomber rammed a vehicle packed with explosives into a police station in Pakistan's restive Swat valley on Thursday, killing four people and destroying the building, police said.
The attack was the latest in a string of bombings on security forces in troubled northwestern Pakistan, where the government is waging a military campaign against militants with links to al-
Qaeda and theTaliban.
"It was a huge blast. Three security force personnel and one policeman were killed. The police station was destroyed," Mingora city police chief Dilawar IQian Bangash told AFP.
Ue said the coordinated attack had begun soon after midnight, with militants and security forces trading fierce gunfire before the suicide bomberdrovea 14-seat bus Into the back of the police station s grounds.
The vehicle exploded as it came under fire, damaging scores of shops, a hotel, a school and many houses in Mingora, the main town in the Swat valley.
