Residents, official figures and members of municipal council of Ras Baalbek town staged Sunday a sit-in at the town’s intersection and blocked the international road for half an hour, to protest against the infiltration of gunmen into their lands.
The protesters called on the Lebanese government to provide the Lebanese Armed Forces with the appropriate cover to drive the militants out of their properties.
Bishop Elias Rahal and MP Emile Rahme participated in the sit-in.
