The CIA has suspended drone missile strikes on gatherings of low-ranking militants in Pakistan believed to be involved in cross-border attacks on U.S. troops in Afghanistan, current and former U.S. officials say. The undeclared halt in attacks, now in its sixth week, is aimed at reversing a sharp erosion of trust after a series of deadly incidents, including the mistaken attack by U.S. gunships that killed 24 Pakistani soldiers last month.
