The Ministry of Health: 5 new deaths and 595 new cases of COVID-19 in Lebanon.

Lebanon ex-PMs Saad Hariri, Fouad Siniora, Najib Mikati, and Tammam Sallam endorse Mustapha Adib as prime minister.

Ambassador Mostafa Adeeb AbdulWahad arrived at Beirut International Airport yesterday evening from Berlin via Charles de Gaulle Airport. https://t.co/OcJyCPimjD

I actually wonder why the west calls them mercenaries, but call with a ,straight face, the USA mercenaries....contractors; that in the light of the USA contractors outnumbering the regulars during the Afghan and Iraq war.

Plain hypocrisy.

Note: Not talking about QalaatM. https://t.co/Wiwi2oURui

Now: The luminous objects that were seen a little while ago in the sky of Beirut Airport are French planes that will participate in an air show during Macron's visit.

Video in a few. https://t.co/kukhcPewdX

- Until now Hariri's party (Future Movement), Mikati's party (Al Hazm), Talal Erslan's party (mixed Erslan with FPM) will name Adib for PM.

- Hezbullah, Amal, and FPM have accepted him and will likely name him too.

- No news yet on the position of Joumblat (PSP) or Gaagaa (LF).

Hezbullah's Ridwan forces posted a new video with the verse of retaliation from the Old Testament (Exodus 21:24).

Nasrallah: "A soldier for a soldier".

Exodus 21:12-14: "Anyone who strikes a person with a fatal blow is to be put to death. But if anyone schemes and kills someone deliberately, that person is to be taken from my altar and put to death...."

21:24 "eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, burn for burn, wound for wound, bruise for bruise."

Nothing says 'sovereignty' better than foreign planes preparing a show to celebrate the 100th anniversary of our Lebanese State, placed under the colonial rule of that same foreign country.

The French planes have finished their drills and landed at the airport.

Thread with the highlights of the president's speech tonight.

🔁 RT @asadabukhalil: Lebanese ambassador at UN thanks US ambassador at UN, who spoke about the suffering of the Israelis and the danger posed to the Israelis, without ever uttering a word about the danger and harm that Israel has inflicted on Lebanon. You are not thanking her in the name of Lebanese https://t.co/gsOjgbQM61

Its that awkward part of the year when the IDF spox talks about Hezbullah's Secretary General's birthday.

Well yet another year and they still have the date wrong. He wasn't born on the 31st of August. https://t.co/dwP2ZvGT93

He was born on 28-11-1959.

Jal Al Dieb road is blocked by protesters.

Note: Usually it's the Lebanese forces.
