66th cabinet of Lebanon
It was the sixty-sixth Lebanese government after independence, the third under President Émile Lahoud, and the fifth government headed by Rafic Hariri. The government was formed on 17 April 2003 and the government resigned on 26 October 2004 after the extension of the term of President Émile Lahoud by three years. A few months after his resignation, Hariri was assassinated, sparking the Cedar Revolution.
