Description

Several were injured Tuesday night, as protests raged on in Beirut in the aftermath of the city's destructive port blasts that have already forced the resignation of Prime Minister Hassan Diab's government.

Protesters were seen setting fire to a police barricade near the city's Martyrs' Square and several bloodied demonstrators were treated for injuries inside of emergency response vehicles.

Although Diab announced his government's resignation on Monday, after some ministers had already resigned over the weekend, the country's president, Michel Aoun, has asked for the administration to stay on as a caretaker government.
