A car bomb has exploded near a Lebanese army checkpoint in a southern suburb of the capital, Beirut, security officials and witnesses say.
Unconfirmed reports say a suicide bomber died and at least two other people were wounded in the blast.
Lebanon has suffered a rise in sectarian tension linked to the conflict in neighbouring Syria.
Last week a policeman was killed and 30 people injured when a suicide bomber detonated his car in eastern Lebanon.
