Pakistan’s security officials say missiles fired by a drone hit a compound and a car near Wana — the main town of South Waziristan.
Witnesses say the vehicle was destroyed completely, leaving all four occupants dead and six people were killed in the attack on the compound.
Last week, four such attacks targeting the same tribal area killed over 40 people.
Hundreds of people have been killed in US attacks in Pakistan.
The aerial attacks, initiated by former US president George W. Bush, have been escalated under President Barack Obama.
Islamabad has repeatedly condemned the attacks, saying they violate Pakistan’s sovereignty.
The United Nations says the US-operated drone strikes in Pakistan pose a growing challenge to the international rule of law.
Philip Alston, UN special envoy on extrajudicial killings, said in a report in late October 2010 that the attacks were undermining the rules designed to protect the right of life.
Alston also said he feared that the drone killings by the US Central Intelligence Agency could develop a “play station” mentality.
