ANTELIAS, Lebanon, July 12 (Reuters) - A powerful car bomb wounded pro-Syrian Defence Minister Elias al-Murr and killed two people north of Beirut on Tuesday in the latest of several deadly attacks to shake Lebanon this year.

A security source said the bomb that targeted Murr's motorcade in the Christian suburb of Antelias consisted of about 100 kg (220 pounds) of explosives, detonated by remote control.

Twelve people were also wounded in the blast, which was heard from several kilometres (miles) away.

"I know the country is going through a difficult phase and we all have to be steadfast until this phase passes," Murr, wounded in his face and hand, told Voice of Lebanon radio from his hospital bed.
