Civil War Breaks out in Lebanon Due to COVID-19 Economic Apocalypse

A protester has been shot and killed in the Lebanese city of Tripoli, as the country’s financial and economic crisis worsens under the additional pressure of the coronavirus pandemic.
The Lebanese pound has collapsed amid soaring inflation and unemployment worsened by the shutdown of the economy, exacerbating the pre-existing financial crisis which has plagued the country since October.

These scenes are ominously reminiscent of Syria in the early stages of the civil war there.
