A video circulating of Lebanese Forces militias setting up checkpoints in Zahle.

Generally speaking, Lebanese are eery of such sights as Lebanese Forces used to set similar checkpoints during the civil war were they have a long history of field executions at.

Allegedly, this is a sit-in by the Lebanese Forces in Zahle where thry blocked the city's roads, in protest of the lack of diesel fuel for the Zahle Electricity Company.

However, this does not explain the party flags and political attire.

During the past month, Israel killed 13 Palestinian, detained 384 including minors as young as 12, and demolished 31 homes and facilities.
