Pakistan for the first time on Monday used an indigenous drone to attack a terrorist compound in northwestern tribal region near its border with Afghanistan, killing at least three high-profile militants.
The pilotless aircraft Burraq destroyed the rebel hideout in Shawal area of North Waziristan.
"The first-ever use of Pakistan made Burraq drone today hit a terrorist compound in Shawal Valley killing three high profile terrorists," Military spokesman Major General Asim Bajwa tweeted.
The remotely-piloted aircraft Burraq and laser-guided missile Burq were tested on March 14, taking Pakistan a step closer to acquiring the technology it has long demanded from the US.
The Pakistan military has been battling militants in Shawal as part of an offensive launched in June 2014 in North Waziristan, a longtime stronghold of Al Qasda and other armed groups along the Afghan border.
