    ANTI-GOVERNMENTAL RALLIES PROCEED IN BEIRUT
    By Petros Keshishian

    The Friday rallies aimed at toppling PM Fouad Siniora's cabinet
    continue in Beirut. While quenching the protest rally of adherents
    of the Shia oppositional organizations 1 man was killed and 12 were
    wounded.

    The lasting anti-governmental rallies at the weekend were organized
    by Hezbollah and Amal movements, Reuters reports. The Shias set up a
    tent camp in front of the Government's residence. Though a part of
    protestors was driven away, the rally participants are inclined to
    continue their demonstration until the Government resigns.

    The governmental crisis in Lebanon began after the resignation of the
    6 ministers representing the interests of Hezbollah and Amal as well
    as Pierre Gemayel's assassination.
