🚨 Information Minister Ziad Makari took the decision to close Télé Liban.
Télé Liban resumed broadcasting, amid union dispute
Lebanon's public broadcaster Télé Liban resumed broadcasting by 7 p.m. yesterday, after a suspension of a few hours.
Minister Ziad Makari denied that the station would be permanently closed. He explained in a statement shared by LBCI that the temporary suspension was “in the interest of public funds” and “in light of the steadfastness of the president of the Union of Télé Liban Employees, Mirna Chidiac” whom he blamed for stopping all program broadcasts and using the public screen exclusively “for disseminating her statements”.
Makari noted that Télé Liban requires “20,000 liters [of diesel] per month for its transmission facility in Tallet Al-Khayat”. The minister said he obtained a financial advance of 70B pounds ($750k) to settle accumulated debts dating years back, including health insurance benefits for the employees.
