Lebanese clerics mediating to end Arsal fighting attacked, wounded

BEIRUT (Reuters) - Five Lebanese Sunni Muslim clerics were wounded when their convoy came under fire on Tuesday as it entered the border town of Arsal, which was attacked by Islamists at the weekend and has seen one of the worst spillover of civil war into Lebanon.

A Sunni cleric in the town told Reuters the clerics were slightly wounded and were treated in a hospital in the town.
