Hariri to address press amid resignation scuttlebutt
Lebanon’s under-fire prime minister Saad Hariri is slated to speak in approximately one hour, amid rumors of his imminent resignation following nearly two weeks of unprecedented protests demanding political change.
Hariri’s office summoned the press for 4 p.m., even as counterdemonstrators wielding sticks and throwing stones attacked the main protest site in Beirut.
