Iraq to supply Lebanon with fuel for electricity for another year -Lebanese PM

Iraq’s government has agreed to continue supplying Lebanon’s electricity company with heavy fuel oil for another year, Lebanon’s caretaker prime minister said on Thursday. This will alleviate pressure on Lebanon’s struggling power grid. Due to the inability of the Lebanese government to supply subsidized electricity to the people from July 2021- this has caused Lebanon to request  1 million tonnes from Iraq of heavy fuel in exchange for healthcare to Iraqi citizens.
