Retired Servicemen to Block Vital Facilities Monday Morning

A grouping of retired servicemen on Sunday vowed to stage protests and block vital facilities on Monday morning to warn the government against "touching retirement salaries or social aid stipulated by the law."

"This major protest is the beginning of other steps that will paralyze all Lebanese regions," the grouping added.

It also called on civilian retirees to take part in the prorests, warning them that they are "on the same boat."

The grouping also apologized to citizens for the inconvenience that will be caused by the protests and urged them to "stand by those who were yesterday the guardians of the country."
