Lebanon protesters successfully form 170-km human chain — organizers

BEIRUT — Tens of thousands of Lebanese protesters successfully form a 170-kilometer-long human chain today, stretching the length of the country from Tripoli in the north to Tyre in the south, organizers say.

“I can confirm that the human chain was a success,” Julie Tegho Bou Nassif, one of the organizers, tells AFP.
