MIR ALI, Pakistan — A suspected U.S. missile strike killed 13 people Saturday in a Pakistani tribal region. From that area, several militant outfits plot attacks on Western troops across the border in Afghanistan, officials said.
A roadside bomb aimed at police elsewhere in the country’s volatile northwest killed a civilian and wounded eight people. Also, gunmen opened fire on police at a court in the southern city of Karachi; one police officer and an attacker were killed.
The attacks came as U.S. special envoy Richard Holbrooke met with Pakistani leaders in Islamabad to try to shore up Pakistani support for the war in Afghanistan.
