Lebanon will switch to daylight saving time (GMT+3) on Saturday night.
Tonight, at midnight, you'll have to set your clocks and watches ahead by one hour: At midnight (winter time) on Sunday, it will be 1 a.m., according to the new time.
French President Emmanuel Macron is scheduled to visit Lebanon on Friday, marking the first visit by a foreign head of state since the election of Lebanon’s new president, Joseph Aoun, according to an announcement from the Lebanese presidency on Tuesday.
Lebanon's Prime Minister-designate Nawaf Salam said on Tuesday his hands were "extended to everyone", in a gesture to the Iran-backed Hezbollah militant group that accused opponents of seeking to exclude it by nominating him for the post.
The appointment of Nawaf Salam as the next Prime Minister of Lebanon signals a significant political shift in a country long entangled in sectarian power struggles and external influences.
