US drone strikes targeting three militant compounds on Friday killed at least 15 rebels in Pakistan's restive tribal region near the Afghan border, security officials said.
 
"The death from three US drone attacks in North Waziristan region has gone up to at least 15," a security official in the northwestern city of Peshawar told AFP, revising the earlier toll of eight.
