LEBANON-UNREST-CLASHES
Sunni Muslim gunmen stands behind sand barricades as one of them points his submachine gun through a hole in a wall during clashes in the Bab al-Tabbaneh neighbourhood of the northern Lebanese city of Tripoli. Two people were killed and 41 wounded in overnight clashes between rival sectarian camps in the port city, a security official told AFP. Most Bab al-Tebbaneh residents are Sunni supporters of the government backed by the West and most Arab states, while Jabal Mohsen has a majority which supports the Syrian- and Iranian- backed opposition from the Alawite Muslim sect that is a branch of Shiism.
