A car bomb exploded on Tuesday in a Beirut stronghold district of the Lebanese Hezbollah militant group that has been fighting in Syria’s civil war, wounding at least 38 people, a hospital official told Reuters.
Reports that one employee had been killed in the parking lot where the explosion occurred in Beirut’s southern suburbs could not be confirmed by hospital officials. Sectarian tensions in Lebanon have been high following the intervention of the Shiite Hezbollah in support of President Bashar al-Assad’s forces fighting a two-year revolt.
“This is the work of agents trying to create strife in Lebanon,” said Hezbollah parliamentary deputy Ali Meqdad at the site of the explosion. Interior Minister Marwan Charbel said the attack was “a criminal act aimed at destabilising the country and creating Sunni-Shiite sectarian strife.”
