Sheikh Baha Hariri’s media advisor, Jerry Maher, wrote on his Twitter page saying: “Some people are circulating fabricated news that affect Sheikh Baha Hariri, the most prominent of which, are related to the date of his return to Beirut, and his electoral alliances that have nothing to do with the truth.”

He added: “We would like to confirm that the only source for any news, is Sheikh Hariri’s Twitter account, as well as what is issued by his Media Advisor Jerry Maher, and Sawt Beirut International platforms.”
