In detailed events of what happened in Toulin Southern village, French Forces detained a citizen in Toulin, for the charge of throwing "eggs" on one of its patrols in the village of Kabrikha.

The detention led to a massive protest in the streets, where tension was erupted between the people and the French troops. At this level, the Lebanese army interfered to reduce tension between both parts.

As a result of this interference, the French forces released the detained citizen, who was evidently physically assaulted.

French "Peacekeepers" took over many Lebanese civilians' cars, leaving behind some serious damages.

As PEACEKEEPING means to maintain and preserve the public peace and prevent riots, the French peacekeepers ought to do so, yet clearly, they are violating their duties. So how could peace be maintained if peacekeepers themselves develop riots?
