AGP Executive Report
Last update: 4 hours agoLebanon Power Costs: A new breakdown of Lebanon generator bills explains how the August surge is driven by the ministry-set kilowatt-hour rate (LBP 48,241 in many areas) plus fixed subscription fees (LBP 385,000 for 5-amp, LBP 685,000 for 10-amp), turning higher consumption into sharply higher end-of-month totals. Southern Lebanon Security: The IDF says it cleared Hezbollah underground infrastructure on the Ali al-Taher ridge in Nabatieh after months of operations, finding command rooms, weapons storage, generators and living quarters—while Israel’s PM Netanyahu declared the ridge no longer threatens northern settlements. US-Iran Shipping & Energy: US Vice President JD Vance says Washington won’t resume talks with Iran until Tehran stops attacks on commercial shipping, while also declining to call the conflict a “war” and refusing to set a timeline for an end—keeping Strait of Hormuz risk front and center for energy prices. Fraud Watch (US, for context): BBB Scam Tracker updates show continued online purchase and phishing losses across multiple US cities named “Lebanon,” underscoring how consumer scams keep evolving alongside broader economic stress.
