The follow-up committee emanating from the parliamentary blocs of the Alliance for Change and Renewal, the Kataeb Party, and the Strong Republic, in addition to MP Bilal al-Hocheimy, called in a statement this evening for declaring tomorrow, April 12, 2024, a “day of national mourning” coinciding with the funeral of martyr Pascal Sleiman at noon in the Church of St. George in Jbeil.

The blocs called for solidarity with the family of the late Pascal Sleiman and paid tribute to his spirit, by demonstrating the solidarity of all Lebanese with the Lebanese state and its sovereignty in the face of the chaos of arms, security chaos, and illegal weapons that currently plague Lebanon.
