Lebanese economy worsens with diesel and bread shortages
The article reflects the deterioration of the economic and living conditions in Lebanon following the renewed parliamentary confidence in Prime Minister Nawar Salameh's government. The country’s markets have seen increases in the prices of basic goods, with the cost of bread and a liter of diesel exceeding $30, leading to a significant rise in transportation costs. It was also announced that the price of a bread loaf has increased by 5,000 Lebanese pounds. Public transportation drivers have taken escalatory steps in response to the rising fuel prices and operating costs, further burdening citizens who are already suffering from declining salaries and rising inflation. This is taking place amid the absence of effective government plans to address the crisis.
