In Beirut, clashes between participants in an anti-government rally and the police have suffered, according to the Lebanese Red Cross, more than 170 people. Lebanese security forces reportedly opened fire in the area of the parliament building in an attempt to disperse protesters. There is no official confirmation of this information yet. The protesters demanded the resignation of the government, accusing officials of corruption, which, in their opinion, led to the explosion in the port of the city on August 4.
