tayyar.org - Strike Causes Official Office Closures
Official authorities in the city of Tripoli have closed their offices in response to the call from the Public Administration Employees Union to strike, protesting economic pressure, rising prices, and salaries that have lost their value since 2019. Prime Minister Nawar Salameh affirmed that the government is making efforts to ease the financial burdens on citizens, noting that part of the 2027 budget will be allocated to correct the salaries of employees and military personnel, with a cost estimated at around $1.2 billion. He also pointed to the increase in oil prices and emphasized the need to monitor exploitation of the chaos to achieve illicit profits, while working to activate oversight over official pricing, amidst the ongoing deterioration of the economic situation.
