Lebanon

Five people were killed and 25 were wounded when a roadside bomb was detonated on a bus carrying Lebanese soldiers north of Tripoli. Four soldiers were killed and 22 were wounded in the attack. The Lebanese Army command said the attack was designed to derail reconciliation between Sunni and Alawi groups in Tripoli.
