BEIRUT: Large-scale demonstrations have erupted across Lebanon as protesters voiced strong opposition to a reported agreement involving Israel.

Thousands of demonstrators gathered in several cities, including the capital, Beirut, where roads were blocked and tires were set on fire as part of the protests. The unrest disrupted traffic in multiple areas while security forces closely monitored the situation.

During the demonstrations, some protesters carried Hezbollah and Iranian flags, reflecting support for groups opposed to any form of engagement with Israel.

The protests underscore the deep political divisions within Lebanon over relations with Israel, with opponents rejecting any agreement they believe could undermine the country’s national interests.
