The mobilization continues in Lebanon while the appointment of a new government is still waiting. After the roadblocks, the protesters decided to attack places of power or organizations deemed corrupt. Reportage.
With our special correspondent in Beirut, Murielle Paradon
They are a hundred gathered in front of a huge glass building housing MTC, one of the two major telephone and internet companies in Lebanon.
Hoda is one of the protesters. " This action against MTC Touch and Alfa is because it is the two telecom companies that monopolize in this country, that the prices are unacceptable, but also the service is very bad and they represent corruption. Most of the big companies that run this country are indirectly linked to politicians or networks around these politicians, "she laments.
Targeting this type of organization is also a change of strategy on the part of the demonstrators who no longer want to block roadblocks.
" We decided to change strategy, not to close the roads as before or to close the roads because there are plenty of people affected by this, " said one participant. It reminds them of the war and therefore it affects society a lot, especially the generations before. And we do not want that, we're not here for that, "
Every day the protesters also try to renew their actions to keep the movement alive.
