Lebanese commentator Ahmad al-Ayoubi claimed that Hezbollah was acting without any regard for Lebanon, as the country's landlord, and in 2006 brought disaster and tremendous destruction to Lebanon, all due to the irresponsible step of kidnapping soldiers, serving only the organization's interests. Now the tunnels could bring exactly the same results. According to al-Ayoubi, Hezbollah is defending itself and not the Lebanese. In the next war, the organization's fighters will be in the tunnels, while the civilians will snatch the fire from Israeli planes. Lebanese citizens are becoming a human shield of the organization.

At least six people were killed and 32 wounded as shots were fired during a protest by Hezbollah supporters against Tarek Bitar, the judge investigating the Beirut Port blast, in Beirut on Thursday, as tensions surrounding the case continue to rise.
A cautious calm had been reached as of Thursday afternoon, according to Lebanese reports.
The shooting reportedly began in the Tayouneh area where it meets Ain El Remmaneh and Chiyah, a site famous for sectarian clashes during the 1975 civil war in Lebanon, as it marked the border between East Beirut and West Beirut.</blockquote></ref>
