A Lebanese soldier runs past burning tires lit by Lebanese Sunni Muslim supporters of Lebanon's caretaker Prime Minister Saad al-Hariri during what they called "a day of anger," to protest against the nomination of Hezbollah-backed Najib Mikati to form the next government, January 25, 2011. Protesters blocked a main road connecting Beirut to southern Lebanon, in Sidon, southern Lebanon. Hariri loyalists have called for a "day of anger" after Hezbollah and its allies, who toppled Hariri's government two weeks ago in a dispute about indictments in the investigation of his father's killing, won support for Mikati to replace him.
