Summary
The head of the Lebanese Forces office in Zahle's Ferzol is still detained by the Army after a dispute broke out early Sunday morning over the LF's attempt to erect a monument commemorating its fallen.
The dispute, the latest incarnation of tensions between the two major Christian parties, escalated into a fierce war of words that culminated in the arrest of the LF's area head Youssef Saide, along with five other men affiliated with the LF who were later released.
