AT least six people were killed today in a blast targeting a military bus on the outskirts of the northern Lebanese port city of Tripoli, a security official said.
"We have at least six people killed, three of them soldiers," the official said.
He said the bomb went off in the Bahsas region as the mini-bus heading towards the capital Beirut drove by. There were about 24 passengers on board.
Police and the army immediately cordoned off the area as forensic experts began gathering evidence.
