At least 12 suspected militants have died in a missile attack in north-west Pakistan, local officials said.
The attack took place after midnight in Khushali Torikhel village in the troubled North Waziristan district.
Meanwhile, a Pakistani soldier was killed in fighting between security forces and militants in South Waziristan district, the military said.
The clashes come a day after armed men captured and later released about 250 schoolchildren in Bannu district.
"A missile came from an unknown direction on Monday night and hit a house, after which 12 people have died," a local administration official was quoted by news agency AFP as saying.
