Ad-Diyar newspaper quoted on Sunday an unnamed March 14 source as saying that the aim of power-cut protests might be to overthrow the government, instead of their avowed aim to criticize electricity shortages in the country.
The Hezbollah backed March 8 coalition planned the protests after it realized it cannot stop the Special Tribunal for Lebanon (STL) or postpone its indictment, the source added.
Protests against the power blackouts continued over the weekend … Yesterday Hezbollah and Amal supporters closed the Airport road with burning tires and today they blocked the road that links al-Nabatieh al-Fawqa with the city of Nabatieh with burning tires. The Beqaa region also witnessed protests at the Masnaa road but security forces soon intervened and reopened all the roads
