Hariri Breaks Leg while Skiing in French Alps
Former PM Saad Hariri broke his left leg while skiing in the French Alps, said his press office in a statement on Saturday.
He underwent a successful three-hour surgery in the American Hospital of Paris.
The former premier will remain in hospital for several days for recuperation.
Hariri and his family were spending the holidays in the French Alps.
Prime Minister Najib Miqati and Speaker Nabih Berri later telephoned Hariri's family to inquire about his health and wish him a speedy recovery.
As Safir newspaper reported in Saturday that the Mustaqbal Movement is expected to hold a political festival at Biel in downtown Beirut on February 14 to commemorate the 2005 assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri.
Former Premier Saad Hariri is therefore expected to return to Lebanon before mid-February in order to attend the event, revealed a prominent Mustaqbal parliamentary source to the newspaper.
Preparations will also be taken in order to stage a popular and political rally to commemorate the March 14 demonstration that was held in 2005.
Former PM Saad Hariri left Lebanon in April a few months after his government was overthrown in January.
He has since taken to the social networking site Twitter to keep in touch with supporters.
He confirmed via Twitter on January 14 that he will be returning to Lebanon soon.

Hizb is not the reason for his broken leg, but Hizb is the reason he is outside Lebanon (better have broken leg than dead). And who could a better person be????? maybe SHN according to Galiboun

Hizb did not do this one, but they probably wish he was killed instead (killing a bird without firinng). I am sure Galiboun thinks anyone from Hizb is a better person. Even our politicians are showing better manners (though not as sincere).

What's going right with Al Mustaqbal al Ta3ees? Cheikh Imbecile breaks his leg, the crook and thief Fouad Siniora's tongue gets cut out of his mouth and now is in the process of learning sign language but has so far only perfected pointing his middle finger! What's next? Samir Geagea to lead the masses of Al Mustaqbal as Ta3ees? Talking about the accumulation of disasters!
So... he's making his grand return to Lebanon with crutches? LOL!
