The UN has issued a new warning over the more than quarter million unexploded cluster bombs littered across southern Lebanon. David Shearer, the UN humanitarian coordinator in Lebanon, says unexploded bombs are killing an average three people every day. And that figure could rise. Shearer says there could be up to 350,000 unexploded cluster bombs still on the ground, and it will take at least a year for most to be cleared.
