Activist on hunger strike Ahmad Amhaz, received first aid treatment after his health deteriorated on Wednesday.
The hunger strike is still ongoing for the sixth consecutive day despite the sandstorm sweeping through Lebanon as well as the deteriorating health condition of many activists.
Several activists started a hunger strike on Thursday (September 03) outside the Environment Ministry’s building in Beirut to press for Minister Mohammad Mashnouq's resignation. The protesters set up tents on the pavement facing the building.
