Lebanon is facing a severe energy crisis, with no electricity or water supplies. The Lebanese Electricity Company has officially announced a complete power outage, which occurred as the last operating unit at the Zahrani power plant in the south of the country was shut down. The shutdown was caused by a critical shortage of fuel, which is worsening the country's energy crisis.

The power outage in Lebanon has also caused water pumps to stop working, cutting off water supplies in the southern regions. The country's Water Authority has urged residents to conserve water given the current situation.

The energy and water crisis highlights the serious problems Lebanon is facing and raises concerns about a further deterioration in living conditions in the country.
