Taliban Terrorists Kill American Tourist,10 Others in Pakistan

A local Taliban spokesman said the attack was in revenge for a May 29 U.S. drone strike that killed Taliban's deputy leader, Waliur Rehman.

Also killed were five Ukrainians, three Chinese and one Russian. One Chinese tourist survived the massacre.

"The U.S. Embassy Islamabad expresses its deepest condolences to the family and friends of the U.S. citizen and the other innocent tourists who were killed in the Northern Areas of Pakistan," Matt Boland, the acting spokesman at the U.S. Embassy in Islamabad, told reporters in a statement.
