CAIRO — Two suicide attackers detonated cars stuffed with explosives Wednesday in Beirut's mostly Shi'ite southern suburbs, close to the Iranian Cultural Center and a nearby Islamic orphanage. Health Minister Wa'el Abou Faour told journalists at least four people were killed and more than 100 were wounded.
Afghanistan on Thursday released a group of what U.S. forces have described as “dangerous†prisoners from a maximum security prison. The move is seen likely to further erode relations between the two countries.
