UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and the UN Security Council on Saturday strongly condemned a deadly car bombing in northeastern Lebanon, saying "the recent escalation in acts of terrorism and violence in Lebanon is of grave concern."
suicide car bombing has hit a gas station in Lebanon's eastern Bekaa town of Hermel, leaving at least four people dead and 20 others wounded, caretaker Interior Minister Marwan Charbel told local LBCI TV Saturday.
The al-Nusra Front in Lebanon and the Marwan al-Hadidi Brigades claimed responsibility Saturday for rocket attacks on Lebanon's east Bekaa city of Hermel.
