Beirut - Five days of violence across Lebanon between government and opposition supporters has left at least 42 people dead, a security official told AFP on Sunday.

"From the day the unrest started, 42 people have been killed and 164 wounded across the country," the official said, adding that the toll might rise as a result of clashes in Druze areas southeast of Beirut.

Fighting between supporters of the Western-backed ruling coalition and the Hezbollah-led opposition which erupted in Beirut on Wednesday swiftly spread around the country.
