A security official said the drones fired two missiles into South Waziristan. Another official said the missiles fell near Angoor Adda village.
"Two missiles were fired on a vehicle at about 4:15 pm (1115 GMT) and four militants were killed," the official told AFP on condition of anonymity. The identity of the militants was not immediately known.
