Seven people have been reported killed as an explosion struck near the Iranian embassy in the Lebanese capital Beirut.
Conflicting reports say the blast could have come from rockets or a car bomb.
Several buildings were damaged in the blast on Tuesday morning, eyewitnesses said.
Iran is a major backer of the Lebanaese Shia militant group Hezbollah, which has sent fighters to Syria to back the government of Bashar al-Assad.
