Judge Aoun found that the company “Mecattaf" smuggled two billion dollars in the last months of 2019 and 2020, without being accompanied by names, which means that this falls within the framework of money laundering.

Oscar Yammine, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Coral and Liquigaz, told MTV:

"The country's stock of diesel is only enough for 3 days, while the stock of gasoline is only enough for 4 days. The crisis has not been resolved, not even temporarily."

The dollar exchange rate decreased from a 20,600 LL high yesterday to 19,700 LL today.

💳 After the collapse of all financial institutions in Lebanon excluding Hezbullah's Qard Al-Hasan that was not part of the interest/financial engineering scheme, the central bank governor Riad Salameh re-announced his intent to legally prosecute and close Qard Al-Hasan.

In his statement: "Al-Qard Al-Hasan is an unlicensed association according to Banque du Liban and when a company is not licensed, it should be pursued by the judiciary and the Ministry of the Interior."

What is happening today is the security forces forcing all stations to sell gasoline at a 3,900 ⁠LL rate in order to prepare for next week when it will be sold at a 21,000 ⁠LL rate.

The Army: Confiscation of 25,500 liters of gasoline stored in a station in the town of Bawarij and 53,000 liters from a station in Dahr Al-Baydar, and 57,000 liters of diesel confiscated from a station in the town of Lala - West Beqaa.

Beirut: A force from the Lebanese army arrived to the Hashem station at Mawwad junction, to organize the queue and avoid any problems.
