A host of March 14 Camp representatives made their way Saturday morning to the border town of Wadi Khaled in Aakar in a political show of solidarity with Syrian refugees and the people's uprising against Assad's regime.

"Our visit to the border town of Wadi Khaled is political par excellence," commented Saeed, "we are about to send a message to the cabinet to take responsibility of what is happening on Lebanese-Syrian borders." 

Saeed maintained that it was the Lebanese State's responsibility to care for the safety of the refugees. "We demand protection and relief for the refugees," he added, "and we want to show solidarity towards major Arab revolutions, particularly the Syrian uprising."
