Prime Minister Najib Miqati described Sunday the elections as "an achievement to be proud of."

"It is a victory for the Lebanese state," Miqati said as polls closed.

Several elections-related clashes erupted Sunday afternoon in various areas of Lebanon.

President Michel Aoun's daughter Claudine Aoun Roukoz, did not give her preferential vote to her brother-in-law Jebran Bassil on Sunday.

Aoun said, in a tweet, that she gave her preferential vote to an independent candidate on the Free Patriotic Movement list.

Supporters of Amal and Hizbullah assaulted Sunday the Shiite candidate Wassef al-Harakeh at a polling station in Bourj al-Barajneh while calling him "Zionist".

"How are you gonna represent a district where your are rejected," a man was heard saying in a video, addressing al Harakeh.

After voting in Lebanon's elections Sunday, Beirut blast survivor Nessrin hoped the ink on her finger would be a toe in the door of parliament for new candidates fighting corruption.

Hizbullah deputy chief Sheikh Naim Qassem said Sunday that his party will accept the results no matter what they may be.

Qassem added, after voting in Bashoura in Beirut, that Hizbullah will extend its hands to everyone for the sake of Lebanon's rise.

Lebanese voted for a new parliament Sunday against the backdrop of an economic meltdown that is transforming the country and low expectations that the election would significantly alter the political landscape.

A new crop of candidates from the 2019 protest movement are running against the country's entrenched ruling class that is blamed for the collapse, hoping to unseat them. But they are divided and lack the money, experience and other advantages held by traditional political rulers.

French Ambassador to Lebanon Anne Grillo urged Sunday the Lebanese to vote for those who will defend their rights & aspirations in Parliament.

"My Lebanese friends, on this election day that is important for the future of your country, you have the opportunity to vote for those who will represent you in Parliament, and they will have to defend your rights and aspirations to build the Lebanon you want," Grillo said.

A Young man was arrested Sunday in Haret Hreik after he addressed insults to President Michel Aoun.

Charbel Tahoumi was seen in a video dragged by Army members as they arrested him.

Two Lebanese Forces supporters have been wounded in a dispute between the Shiite Duo and the LF in the town of Kfarhouna in the Jezzine District.

The Red cross arrived in the town to treat the wounded, as the army intervened immediately to stop the clash.
