Saudi Arabia blocks FPM's tayyar.org
BEIRUT: Free Patriotic Movement's tayyar.org news site was allegedly blocked by Saudi Authorities.

Tayyar.org said in a brief statement that Saudi Authorities "blocked the news site and replaced it with an announcement."

A message was displayed saying: "Sorry, the requested page is violating the regulations of the Ministry of Culture and Information (in Saudi Arabia)."

"To unblock the page, you may send an official request to the Ministry of Culture and Information."

Coming back from the Riyadh summit Sunday night, Foreign Minister and FPM chief Gebran Bassil tweeted that he was unaware there would be a final statement from the meeting. He said the statement was read after the Lebanese delegation left the country.

The summit brought together over 50 international leaders including U.S. President Donald Trump in Riyadh Sunday. Most leaders blasted Iran and Hezbollah for their role in regional tensions.

On Wednesday, President Michel Aoun and Prime Minister Saad Hariri said during a Cabinet session at the Baabda Palace that the Lebanese government abides by the president's swearing-in speech and the Cabinet's ministerial statement, distancing Lebanon from all regional crises.
