The extension of the general lockdown led to popular protests in Lebanon. The lockdown was supposed to end January, 25.
The protesters confirmed that they would continue their protests if the lockdown continues without securing their essential food supplies.
They expressed their rejection of the lockdown protesting that the government should instead take measures to gradually end the lockdown depending on the sector.
Trade unions asked for new alternatives to compensate private sector workers, workers with limited income, and daily wage workers.
