Lebanon faces critical electricity shortage

Nov 22, 2021, 09:40 PM

Lebanon’s electric company is only able to provide power to residents for a few hours a day. For the rest of the time, people have no choice but to rely on private generator businesses, which in turn, has created its own set of problems. And, ahead of Chile's presidential elections next month, far-right candidate José Antonio Kast and leftist Gabriel Boric will compete for the position. Plus, American popstar Justin Bieber is performing in Saudi Arabia next month. Saudi youth are celebrating the concert as a sign of their country’s increasing openness, but some analysts say the kingdom may be whitewashing its human rights record.
