A woman and her 6-year-old son were killed and six people were injured when a bomb exploded in an East Beirut apartment building, police said. They said the bomb, concealed in a leather bag, exploded outside a second-floor apartment. It was the third bombing in the Christian sector of Lebanon’s strife-torn capital in four days. At least nine people were reported killed and more than 80 wounded in the two previous blasts--a car bomb on Friday and the bombing of an apartment building the next day.
