Senior Pakistani militant leader Mullah Nazir has been killed by a US drone strike, security officials say.
He died with at least five fighters when two missiles struck his vehicle in the north-west tribal district of South Waziristan, they said.
He was the leader of one of four major militant factions in Pakistan, accused of sending fighters to back the Afghan Taliban and fight foreign troops there.
