Al-Akhbar: 29 million liters of Iranian fuel will enter Lebanon in the coming days.
Al-Akhbar newspaper announced that 29 million liters of Iranian fuel oil will enter Lebanon in the coming days.
The Lebanese newspaper Al-Akhbar reported that the issue of fuel oil imports from Iran is still under investigation and there are ambiguities about the exact date of arrival of Iranian cargo to Lebanon. However, information indicates that the first shipment will soon enter the Lebanese market.
Al-Akhbar continued its report: the shipment of 29 million liters of Iranian diesel fuel, which will enter Lebanon in the coming days, will be distributed by Al-Amaneh Company in two stages. The first stage is related to the distribution of this fuel in private and public hospitals and clinics and some factories producing essential goods, and the second stage includes municipalities and private sector producers.
According to the report, Iranian fuel oil is being transported to Lebanon through a number of tankers from Syria, which have provided free services to Lebanon. Also, the Iranian ship’s fuel cargo is not unloaded at once and this process is scheduled to take place in a few days.
The news of the arrival of Iranian fuel ships to Lebanon was among the important news in the region and the world last week. Following the confirmation of the arrival of the first ship, news reports indicate that the second and third ships carrying fuel to Lebanon were commissioned by Hezbollah Secretary General Seyed Hassan Nasrallah.
According to the Lebanese newspaper Al-Akhbar, the fuel cargo of the Iranian ship, which the Lebanese called “the true promise”, entered Syrian territorial waters on Wednesday last week to be transported to Lebanon by tanker. An Iranian oil tanker docked at the port of Banias in northwestern Syria on Friday.
In an interview with Al-Manar News Network, the Ambassador of the Islamic Republic of Iran to Lebanon, Mohammad Jalal Firuznia, stressed that Iranian ships would reach Lebanon and that no one would be allowed to enter them.
Informed sources report that for technical reasons, Iraqi oil is expected to enter Lebanon late, and also in the light of the ambiguity of the US decision to import gas from Egypt to Lebanon, the convoy of Iranian fuel ships, the first of which arrived within a week, is now Lebanon becomes the only hope of its people in the shadow of the suffocating US siege against Lebanon.
