The central bank has agreed to open lines of credit for bringing two diesel shipments into the country, al-Jadeed TV said on Tuesday.
The two shipments will be subsidized at a rate of LBP 3,900 for the dollar and have been imported by the Liquigas and Uniterminals companies, al-Jadeed added.
The shipments, containing 80 million liters of diesel, can meet the market’s needs for five to six days, the TV network said.
The central bank meanwhile refused to open a line of credit for a 40-million-liter gasoline shipment needed by the market, al-Jadeed added.
