Citizens Urged to Refrain from Opening Fire to Celebrate Politicians” TV Appearances

The Interior Ministry on Monday urged Lebanese citizens to refrain from opening fire every time a political leader makes a TV appearance.

 

A statement issued by the ministry stressed the need to avoid opening fire or toss grenades to celebrate a television interview given by a political leader.

 

It said the shooting “causes panic and inflicts casualties as well as damage to both public and private property.”

The ministry called on politicians to “cooperate” in this respect by asking their supporters to abstain from opening fire.
