Non-UN-sanctioned US air raids kill 670 in Pakistan in ‘10

According to media reports and figures compiled by officials in Pakistan, the illegal serial strikes by the pilotless CIA-operated drones significantly soared in 2010 to at least 118 such attacks -- nearly double the number of strikes in 2009, which left 420 dead, AFP reported on Saturday.

Since 2004, the unauthorized US drone strikes have killed 1,400 to 2,000 people -- several of whom were civilians -- in Pakistan
