Blast hits UN peacekeepers in Lebanon
A UN peacekeeper wounded in a bomb attack in Lebanon receives medical treatment.
The vehicle was hit by an explosion on the outskirts of the southern city of Tyre.
Security sources said five French peacekeepers and two civilians were wounded in the attack.
It is the third attack this year on UN forces deployed to keep the peace along Lebanon's southern frontier with Israel.
The UN has around 12,000 troops and naval personnel in Lebanon following the 2006 war between Israel and Hezbollah.
