The demonstrations have already claimed the life of one man who will be buried in Beirut on Tuesday. Shi'ite Muslim Ahmed Mahmoud was killed in a shooting which has heightened political and sectarian tension.Despite the ongoing protests, Lebanese prime minister Fuad Saniora has vowed to stay in office.
