BEIRUT: The social events, traditions and gatherings usually celebrated during Ramadan will be very different this year in Lebanon as the country continues to grapple with unprecedented economic collapse and a coronavirus (COVID-19) surge.
Leading up to the holy month, preparations for Ramadan were slight in Beirut as only a few signs reminding people to donate could be seen in the city’s main streets. Charity foundations usually rely on the month of Ramadan every year to collect donations but the country’s ability to give is fleeting.
“More than 50 percent of the Lebanese now live under the poverty line,” World Bank Group Vice President for Middle East and North Africa Farid Belhaj said on April 4.

As the holy month of Ramadan begins, many families in Lebanon could struggle to afford their daily iftar meal.
Amid Lebanon’s economic crisis and the rapid inflation of food prices, a new study from the Lebanon Crisis Observatory has found that a month’s worth of iftar meals for a family of five could now cost two-and-a-half times the minimum wage - currently 675,000 Lebanese pounds. The Lebanese pound is currently trading at around 12,000-15,000 to the US dollar on the black market.
