Ongoing conflict cripples Lebanon financially, many businesses shut, locals say

The ongoing conflict in West Asia has severely impacted Lebanon’s economy, forcing many businesses to shut down and leaving business owners financially struggling. Unable to pay wages, many have been left bankrupt.

Lebanese cities, once bustling with activity, have come to a standstill. Tourist hotspots that were once packed now appear deserted. The vibrant nightlife scene of the old Zuni town, a popular attraction, has nearly vanished, with no foot traffic in sight.

Locals report that the crisis has caused a significant financial blow to businesses, pushing many to seek new sources of income amidst the unrest.
