A gallery in London is staging an exhibit of photographs taken by a Pakistani photographer allegedly showing innocent civilians killed by U.S. drone missile strikes in Pakistan's tribal region along the Afghan border, the organizers said Monday. Noor Behram, a 39-year-old photographer who has worked with several international news agencies, has spent the last three years photographing the aftermath of drone strikes in North and South Waziristan, important sanctuaries for al-Qaida and Taliban militants in Pakistan. He said he has managed to reach around 60 attack sites, and the exhibit that opens Tuesday at the Beaconsfield gallery in London features photographs from 28 of those strikes.
