Saad Al Hariri returns Lebanon attends independence day celebrations

Lebanon Nov 22: Saad Al Hariri returned to Lebanon and attended Independence day celebrations in Beirut on Wednesday.

Hariri, whose sudden resignation on Nov. 4 pitched Lebanon into crisis, flew into Beirut late on Tuesday. He stood alongside President Michel Aoun and Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri at a military parade in central Beirut.

Lebanese state officials and senior politicians close to Hariri say Riyadh forced him to quit and held him in the kingdom, which Saudi Arabia and Hariri have denied. The resignation took even Hariri's aides by surprise.
