According to beiqing.com, a number of media reported on the 9th that at present, the power supply of two main power stations in Lebanon has been stopped due to fuel depletion, resulting in the formal paralysis of the national power grid in Lebanon, which may not be able to resume operation in a short time.
According to the confirmation of the Lebanese national electric power company, due to the shortage of fuel, the power supply of two main power stations in Lebanon was stopped on the 8th and 9th respectively, resulting in a national power outage in Lebanon. A Lebanese government official said that the State Grid stopped working at noon on the 9th and could not be restarted until at least the 11th. The official said that the state power company will try to temporarily use the army's fuel reserves to restart the power station, but there is no timetable for the implementation of this plan.
According to a picture released by CCTV finance and the associated press, Beirut, the capital, was almost in darkness on the evening of the 9th local time. At the intersection where there should be a lot of traffic, the traffic efficiency of cars has decreased a lot.
Beirut residents in Lebanon: in the past, we could supply electricity for one or two hours a day. Now there is no electricity at all. In order to make the children have fun, we have to go out of the house.

Merchants in Beirut, Lebanon: the power failure causes all kinds of inconvenience. Many things we can't get or the equipment can't run, which makes our work difficult.
The Lebanese state power company said it was trying to import fuel from Iraq, and the latest batch of fuel is expected to arrive next week. Local government officials also said that Lebanon's national power grid will not be restarted until at least next Monday, that is, the 11th. Lebanon's state power company will also try to temporarily use the army's fuel reserves to restart the power station, but there is no specific timetable for the implementation of this plan.
Since 2019, Lebanon has fallen into a serious economic crisis, and its currency has depreciated by more than 90%. In the past year, about three quarters of Lebanon's population has fallen into poverty. At the same time, due to the lack of foreign exchange, it is difficult to import fuel from abroad, which further aggravates the energy shortage in Lebanon. For a long time before the power outage on the 9th, most Lebanese people can only get two hours of power supply every day.
