Lebanese Interior and Municipalities Minister Bassam Mawlawi announced Monday the winners in the Lebanese parliamentary elections in seven electoral districts, while the results in the remaining districts will be announced when vote-counting is over.

"Despite the hardship and doubts, we were able to hold elections in a proper manner. All the bids to strike the authenticity of the vote-counting do not affect our work, employees, nor the judiciary," Mawlawi said ahead of revealing the winners in the legislative elections held in Lebanon on Sunday.

"The voter turnout is not low. It is good, and it is around the same turnout as that of the 2018 parliamentary election," the minister added.

The results, according to Mawlawi, are as follows:
