Lebanon could gradually go dark as cash for electricity runs out, says lawmaker

Lebanon could go dark as cash for electricity generation runs out this month, a government statement said on Thursday, Reuters reported
“We should not forget that starting May 15, gradual darkness will start,” Nazih Negm, a member of parliament, was quoted as saying after a meeting with the finance and energy ministers.

Lebanon’s parliament had approved a $200 million emergency loan to be allocated for fuel imports for power generation in March, but the money has so far not received final approval, adds the agency.
