Confrontations facing the entrance to the Parliament on the Beirut Municipality Street escalated between demonstrators and the Internal Security Forces’ riot police on Saturday afternoon.
Young men threw heavy firecrackers, in addition to a Molotov grenade, taking shelter in a glass façade which they removed from a store, and with branches they pulled out of most trees in the vicinity.
Teams from the Red Cross and Civil Defense arrived at the scene, transporting a number of injured to nearby hospitals for treatment.
