Several demonstrations in support of Syria's Kurds have taken place in the Lebanese capital and across the world since Ankara launched its operation last month.

Protests in solidarity with Berri extend to Lebanese University

Employees at the Lebanese University in Hadath staged a protest in solidarity with Speaker Nabih Berri as part of the fourth day of actions in support of the speaker.

“Today we are protesting in a civil manner and will continue to do so because we feel that the nation is in danger with this language we’re hearing today,” Ali Chehade, an Amal supporter, told MTV Lebanon.

Protests were sparked Monday after a video of Foreign Minister Gebran Bassil was leaked in which he called Berri a “thug.”

Berri supporters protest in Beirut, Tyre

Supporters of Speaker Nabih Berri rallied for the third consecutive day across Lebanon, with dozens waving banners and chanting slogans in Beirut and the southern city of Tyre.

The protests broke out on the streets Monday in response to a viral video in which Foreign Minister Gebran Bassil is seen calling Berri a “thug,” during a meet with supporters of his Free Patriotic Movement.

Second day of protests over Bassil slur

Protests and demonstrations erupted for a second day in both Beirut and some areas of south Lebanon as a result of a leaked recoding showing Foreign Minister Gebran Bassil calling Speaker Nabih Berri a “thug” in a recent electoral meeting. Although protests were not on the same scale as those Monday, Berri’s supporters took to the streets of the capital in the evening with no obvious end in sight to the tension.

The leaked video was not well received by officials and members of the Amal Movement, headed by Berri, and has soured relations between the speaker and Bassil.

Pro-Berri protests spread across Beirut

Supporters of Speaker Nabih Berri took to the streets, blocking roads close to Free Patriotic Movement offices in reaction to a leaked video of Foreign Minister Gebran Bassil calling the speaker a "thug." Assault rifles were fired into the air near FPM offices in Mirna Chalouhli as protesters blocked streets. It wasn't immediately clear who initiated the gunfire with both the Amal Movement and the FPM each blaming the other. Lebanese Army units and Internal Security Forces deployed near the center to prevent Berri's supporters reaching the building.
