Cluster bombs wound two Belgian soldiers in southern Lebanon

Two Belgian soldiers were wounded in a cluster bomb blast during a demining operation in southern Lebanon, Lebanese and UN sources said Monday.

The two Belgian soldiers were wounded in Kunin, southeast of the southern port city of Tyre, UN spokesman Liam McDowall said.

McDowall said one of the soldiers received wounds to the leg and the other to the head. [...]

Israel is reported to have dropped up to 1 million cluster bombs in Lebanon during the 33-day war. The UN says 40 per cent of the bomblets failed to explode on impact.
