Akkar governorate has not received a single hour of electricity for about 2 weeks.

EDL said that stations in Halba, Qoubaiyat and Beit Mlat have been offline till further notice, due to the difficulty and high expenses needed to repair the electrical network.
The Ministry of Economy just announced that the price of bread will increase to:
- 6,000 LBP for the small bag (360g)
- 10,000 LBP for the medium bag (825g)
- 13,000 LBP for the big bag (1125g).
⋯ It is worth mentioning that bread used to cost 1,500 LBP before the economic collapse, and this is by no means affordable to any middle class or lower class Lebanese.
⋯ What is further expected to complicate the matter is an expected Russian ban on sugar and wheat exports, according to Russian media.

Lebanon imports 80% of its wheat from Ukraine and 15% from Russia.
Just weeks after Israeli PM Bennett was in UAE, and while the Israeli president is in Turkey and the IDF CoS is in Bahrain, the Israeli foreign minister Lapid is in Jordan meeting its King.

The Muslim and Arab world in its true face.

Lebanese Minister of Information George Kordahi resigned few months ago due to an old interview where he calls the Saudi war on Yemen "Futile".
