An Egyptian man reportedly linked to al-Qaeda network was killed Saturday in a powerful bomb explosion at Lebanon’s largest Palestinian refugee camp. Two others were injured in the blast.

Farouk al-Masri, an Islamic activist, died instantly when the bomb placed in a car detonated outside a small restaurant he owns in the Ein el-Hilweh camp, located on the outskirts of the southern port city Sidon.

Two Palestinian bystanders, Osama Saadeddin and Nabil Al-Haj, were wounded and several houses damaged.
