Student clashes at the Lebanese Arab University of Beirut AUB

News reports in Beirut said on Wednesday that several persons were injured on Wednesday in clashes at the Arab University in Beirut between students representing the opposition and others supporters of the government in Lebanon.

Scores of young Lebanese demonstrated on Tuesday in the downtown of Beirut in protest of the assassination of Hariri while hundreds demonstrated near the American embassy in the north suburb of Beirut in protest of what they called the American interference in Lebanon and in rejection to dismantling the weapons of the Lebanese resistance.

The Lebanese opposition refuses to take part in a national unity government with the pro government sides. A situation which foils the mission of the designated Lebanese prime minister Omar Karami to form such a government. The Lebanese opposition wants an interim government with its only mission to be the supervision of the general elections in May this year.
