PESHAWAR, Pakistan, Jan 2 (Reuters) - A suspected U.S. drone fired two missiles on Friday in Pakistan's South Waziristan region on the Afghan border, but there was no word on casualties, a Pakistani intelligence source and a resident said. "Two missiles have been fired in Maidan Narai but we don't have any details," said Haji Mohammad, an ethnic Pashtun tribal leader, referring to a remote village. An intelligence agency official confirmed the strike, the second in South Waziristan in as many days. (Reporting by Alamgir Bitani; Editing by Robert Birsel and Sanjeev Miglani)
