    Around 100 youths attacked a Lebanese health clinic
    after a Lebanese driver clipped protesters going home,
    Lebanese residents said. There were no reports of injuries.

    A Lebanese restaurant was also damaged.

    In Togo's capital Lome, at least 10,000 people marched
    through the opposition stronghold of Be, waving branches
    and placards and demanding Gnassingbe step down in the
    largest protest since the 39-year-old took over.

    Saturday's protest dispersed peacefully after a rally
    but Be was tense, with groups of youths roaming the side
    streets and police trucks patrolling. Four demonstrators
    were killed in clashes in the same neighbourhood a week ago.
