    The union tweeted inviting others to come to the Bank in solidarity with depositor George Siam.

    ندعوكم للتوجه الى بنك انتركونتيننتال الحازمية للتضامن مع المودع جورج سيام الذي يعتصم داخل البنك مطالبًا بوديعته

    After the recent events witnessed by banks, especially today in Byblos bank Tyre, and the First National Bank Tripoli, the head of the Union of Banks Employees, George Hajj, confirmed to Al Markaziya that “what happened yesterday and today in some banks is not called “intrusions”, but rather violations that have been addressed and do not require closure.”
