This is the first reported U.S. drone strikes since U.S. President Barack Obama announced last week that the United States reduce UAV program.
Valli - Rahman is ready to take over the Pakistani Taliban leader Mehsud in the South Waziristan region of a military officer based Hakimullah, said in December.
"This is a huge blow in the fight against insurgent militants and a victory," a security official told Reuters reporters.

Practices in line with the White House, not to discuss drone attacks, Carney said he could not confirm killed. But even in his news conference to discuss the White House unmanned policy is an unusual level of openness.
Obama said in a speech last week that the U.S. will use only those drone attacks threatened, "sustained and imminent," a subtle change from the previous policy of launching a major threat to blow.
According to the new presidential guidance, rather than the CIA, the Defense Department will take the lead in launching deadly drones, but is now expected to continue to run the CIA drones in Pakistan.
