Civil movement groups staged a sit in at Riad Solh Square coinciding with the meeting of the Council of Ministers at the Grand Serail, in protest at the tax hike, NNA field reporter said on Friday.
The sit in took place in the presence of a symbolic participation of partisans and supporters of the Progressive Socialist Party, the Progressive Youth, Liberals’ Party and the Lebanese Kataeb Party.
