Lebanese President Michel Aoun is demanding the return of Sa'ad Hariri, who resigned from his post as Lebanon’s prime minister while in Saudi Arabia last week. The call comes as a number of Arab states, led by Saudi Arabia, have asked their nationals to leave Lebanon as soon as possible. Press TV Correspondent Rana Aladdin reports.
