MIRAMSHAH Taliban militants on Saturday shot down a pilotless US drone in Pakistan’s South Waziristan tribal area, officials said. Residents and a local police official said two drones were flying low over a village in the district when one of them was hit by militant fire. ‘We heard the firing by Taliban and then a drone fell down,’ tribal police official Israr Khan told AFP. Another security official said the drone crashed in a forest near a Pakistani border post. ‘Apparently a drone has crashed in the nearby forest, we are searching for its wreckage,’ a security official told AFP.
