A group of men attack a civil society march in defence of freedoms held over the weekend in Lebanon's capital Beirut, yelling homophobic insults and assaulting demonstrators. The attack comes as Lebanon's LGBTQ community has been reeling from months of snowballing hostility, as activists in one of the Middle East's more liberal countries worry about deteriorating personal and political freedoms. The protest was not billed as an LGBTQ event. IMAGES
