Clashes between supporters of Lebanon’s caretaker PM Saad Hariri, and Shia groups Hezbollah and Amal erupt into gunfire in Beirut, state news agency reports
Supporters of the Lebanese Shia groups Hezbollah and Amal carry flags as Lebanese army soldiers stand guard as they form a barrier to separate them from anti-government demonstrators in Beirut, Lebanon, November 25, 2019
A video posted by Lebanese broadcaster LBCI showed heavy gunfire around Cola bridge in Beirut. The source of the gunfire was not immediately clear. No injuries were reported. The protests that have swept Lebanon since October 17 are fuelled by deep resentment for a ruling class seen as mired in corruption and having driven the economy into crisis.
The groups were influential in the coalition government led by Hariri, who quit on October 29 after the protests began. They had opposed Hariri's resignation.
