Algeria began supplying fuel oil to Lebanon to restart its power plants and restore electricity after a complete blackout caused by a severe fuel shortage.
Algeria will start supplying fuel for Lebanon ’s power plants immediately, the North African country’s radio said, as quoted by Reuters. The Reuters report noted Lebanon has been suffering electricity shortages since the 1990s but last week Electricite de Liban, the state power utility, said it had run out of fuel supplies. This led to a complete blackout in the country, including vital infrastructure such as airports, sewage systems, and water pumps.
“Instructed by the Algerian President, Abdelmadjid Tebboune, Prime Minister Nadir Larbaoui had a telephone conversation today with the Lebanese Prime Minister, Najib Mikati, to inform him of the decision taken by President Tebboune to support Lebanon in these difficult circumstances by immediately providing quantities of fuel oil to operate the power plants and restore electricity to the country,” Algeria’s Prime Minister’s office said in Sunday.
