BEIRUT - A bomb exploded near a Lebanese army barracks in Beirut early on Thursday, destroying a car and slightly wounding a soldier, security sources said.
The sources said a local newspaper had received a telephone call from someone claiming to speak on behalf of al-Qaida and declaring that a security target would be bombed in Beirut in retaliation for the arrest last month of 13 group members.
