Saudi Ambassador to Lebanon Fahad al-Dosari arrived at Beirut port on Saturday to attend the launch of the first Lebanese export shipments to Jeddah port, following the lifting of a ban on Lebanese exports. The ban had been in place since April 2021, originally targeting fruit and vegetable imports over concerns that trade was exploited to smuggle Captagon amphetamine-type drugs, as The Zioneer previously reported. The ambassador's participation marks a concrete step toward normalizing economic ties between the two countries after more than five years of restrictions. Additional details on the scope and value of the shipments have not yet been reported.
