(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - As-Safir Lebanese daily said that the Progressive Socialist Party (PSP) leader Walid Jumblatt participated in celebratory gunfire on Friday following the announcement of Egyptian President Husni Mubarak's decision to step down.

Jumblatt fired in the air in Mukhtara to hail "the Egyptian people who toppled the tyrant." He said he is unable to express his happiness.

On another note, Jumlatt has hinted that he was frustrated from the latest meeting of Lebanon's highest Sunni Muslim authority Dar Al Fatwa. Druze leader Jumblatt told As-Safir that "despite religious alignments, and despite the huge political pressure, Arab national minorities will emerge victorious."
