The campaign conducted different protests in front of the embassies and consulates of those countries and had a daily protest in front of the Egyptian embassy including the day when the demonstrators tried to enter the embassy. - ULDY was an effective and leading factor in the campaign to change the sectarian regime in Lebanon.
