تطورت الامور في بلدة البيرة عقب الاعتصام الذي نفذه عدد من الاهالي يتقدمهم رئيس بلدية البيرة الحاج محمد وهبي، ورئيس حركة شباب عكار خالد العبود، وذلك احتجاجا على قرار وزير التربية مروان حمادة تعيين مدير للثانوية ياسين حسان مرعب، لافتين الى انه تم تعيينه بالرغم من اعلان الشغور في العام 2016.
حدة الاعتصام دفعت بالجيش اللبناني للتدخل ما ادى الى حالات اغماء بين الطلاب بسبب استخدام الغاز المسيل للدموع.
