Lebanese security forces on high alert as violent protests continue

Arab News says Lebanon’s Supreme Defense Council has asked the military and security services to stay on high alert to prevent attempts to destabilize the security situation amid the financial and political crises the country is facing.

The council, headed by President Michel Aoun, convened on Tuesday amid protests against the fuel shortage.
