NNA - Azaz abductees' families closed road today (Thursday) next to the Turkish Cultural Center in Down-Town - Beirut, after security forces prohibit them from staging a sit-in in front of the center.
The security forces had previously closed the road in front of Al-Azarieh building in Down-Town Beirut and they deviated traffic to other roads to avoid any clashes between the employees and the abductees' relatives who are protesting next to the Turkish airlines.
It is to note that the eleven Shiite pilgrims were abducted in Azaz, a rural Aleppo region in Syria, while returning from Iran about 11 months ago.
