The distributors of fuel and gasoline indicated to close their pumps tomorrow only following the call for the general strike of the confederation of transport.
As a reminder, this strike comes when since September, the subsidies granted by the Bank of Lebanon to the sector via the price of fuels have been lifted. Thus, since September, gasoline prices have risen sharply.
At the same time, the deterioration in the value of the Lebanese pound against the dollar further accentuated this fall.
