Kataeb leader Samy Gemayel on Thursday praised women on the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, renewing his support for all those who strive to build a just and an equal society.

“We reiterate our rejection to the honor crimes which we have succeeded in passing a law to prevent them and we demand an effective implementation of the Domestic Violence Law that we have fought a great battle to adopt it,” Gemayel wrote on Twitter.
