A suicide car bomber killed four people and injured 27 others in a neighborhood in southern Beirut on Tuesday, Lebanon’s state-run National News Agency reported.
Black plumes of smoke rose from Haret Hreik, which is known as a Hezbollah stronghold. Ambulances rushed to the scene, NNA reported.
The neighborhood is part of Hezbollah’s high-security area known as “security square,” and many of the Shiite Islamist party’s leaders live there.
