BEIRUT - A construction worker was killed and another wounded
Tuesday when a cluster bomb from "Israel`s" war against Lebanon exploded in southern Lebanon, security officials said.
The bomb went off as Hassan Mohammed Shehadeh, 40, and his nephew, Ahmed
Mohammed Shehadeh, 21, were working at a construction site in the village of Kfar Tibnit, near Nabatiyeh town, the officials said, speaking on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk to the media.
Hassan died instantly while Ahmed was rushed to hospital, the officials said.
It was not immediately clear what caused the bomb to explode - whether one man stepped on it or whether it was activated by the movement of some building materials.
The United Nations and human rights groups have accused "Israel" of dropping as many as 4 million cluster bombs on Lebanon during the July-August war with the militant Hizubllah group. United Nations ordnance clearing experts have said that up to 1 million cluster bombs failed to explode and continue to threaten civilians.
At least 25 people have died in cluster bomb explosions in Lebanon since the war ended in a UN-brokered cease-fire on August 14.
