(Xinhua) -- Two people were killed and more than 20 others wounded in Sunday's clashes between supporters of the majority and opposition in northern Lebanese town of Tripoli, local LBC TV reported.
The clashes, which erupted early Sunday, eased down in the afternoon, following a meeting driven by the Sunni Mufti of Tripoli and gathered prominent leaders. It is unclear what triggered the sudden clashes, both sides exchanged accusations. Three people were killed and several wounded last Monday in the Bekaa Valley east of Lebanon when clashes broke out between majority and opposition supporters. Similar clashes took place in many regions of the country last month, leaving at least 70 people killed and over 200 wounded. @ | |
