레바논 북부서 폭탄 테러 … 16명 사망 (E)


레바논 트리폴리에서 버스를 대상으로 한 폭탄 테러가 발생해 9명의 군인을 포함해 최소 16명이 숨졌습니다.

이들 사망자 외에서 최소 31명이 부상한 것으로 알려졌습니다.

레바논 당국은 민간인 승객들이 주로 이용하는 버스에 폭탄이 장착돼 있었으며 이 버스에는 레바논 군인들도 타고 있었다고 밝혔습니다.

아직 자신의 소행임을 밝힌 단체는 나타나지 않고 있지만 일부 레바논 관리들은 이번 공격이 정치적 의미를 담고 있는 것으로 해석하고 있습니다.

Lebanese security officials say a bomb has exploded in the northern port city of Tripoli, killing at least 16 people, including nine soldiers.

At least 31 people also were wounded in today's (Wednesday's) blast.

Officials say the bomb was planted beside a civilian passenger bus that was also carrying Lebanese soldiers.

No one has claimed responsibility for the attack, but some officials suspect it is a political message because of its timing.

The explosion follows weeks of sectarian fighting in Tripoli that has killed dozens of people. It took place hours before a landmark visit to Syria by Lebanese President Michel Suleiman.

Tuesday, Lebanon's national unity Cabinet received a parliamentary vote of confidence following a debate on a controversial government policy that allows the Shi'ite opposition group Hezbollah to keep its weapons.
