In a separate development, Algeria has committed to supplying Lebanon with fuel to alleviate the country’s electricity crisis. After Lebanon’s state electricity company, Electricité du Liban (EDL), announced a nationwide blackout due to depleted fuel reserves, Algeria stepped in to provide fuel for Lebanon’s power plants.

The Algerian government did not provide specific details on the fuel agreement but confirmed the decision to support Lebanon in its time of need.
