Protesters raided the Ministry of Energy and Water to protest power and water cuts, in the middle of the economic crisis.
They claimed that there are no employees in the ministry, including Minister Walid Fayyad who was not there either.
“The air conditioners are turned on here although there are no employees, while the Lebanese don’t have power at home,” a protester said on TV, inviting the Lebanese to come in to enjoy the AC amid an unprecedented heat wave.
Meanwhile, the Lebanese Pound rate reached 30,000 against the dollar on the black market on Thursday morning, recording the highest rate in the last few days.
