Lebanon: Activists plan to protest outside Palais de Justice in Beirut June 10

Activists plan to protest outside the Palais de Justice in Beirut from 15:00 June 10. Participants are showing support for Judge Ghada Aoun, who is charged with alleged obstruction in investigating bank deposit thefts. Dozens to a hundred individuals could attend the demonstration.

Increased security and localized transport disruptions are likely near the Palais de Justice the afternoon of June 10. Clashes between police and protesters are possible, particularly if demonstrators are overly disruptive or ignore police orders to disperse.
