Lebanese Expats voter turnout reaches 26.72% in Arab countries until 1:30 PM

Lebanese expatriates have begun casting their votes in Lebanon’s parliamentary elections, almost three years into a crippling economic crisis that has decimated the Lebanese pound, sparked unprecedented inflation, and pushed thousands of people to leave the country.

The turnout of Lebanese expatriates voting in the Arab countries has reached 26.72% until 1:30 pm, our correspondent reported on Friday.

Lebanese expats living in 10 countries – including Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Iran, and Iraq – will vote on Friday, while the diaspora living in 48 other countries will vote on Sunday.
