Lebanon was gripped by anger and grief Tuesday as it buried four soldiers who were killed in a bombing that targeted their bus in the northern city of Tripoli.
Three of the soldiers were laid to rest in Akkar while the fourth in Hermel.
Four soldiers and one civilian were killed and another 32 people were wounded in the blast. But on Tuesday, two more people died of wounds inflicted by the explosion, raising the total death toll to seven, security officials said.
Army Commander Gen. Jean Qahwaji and Internal Security Forces chief Maj. Gen. Ashraf Rifi inspected the scene of the blast and visited the injured.
Pan Arab daily al-Hayat said Wednesday that Qahwaji later toured army units deployed in the north and said no matter how long terrorism persisted, it won't be able to subjugate the Lebanese people and crush the military's resolve to find the culprits. |
