REUTERS/Ammar Awad Acquire Licensing RightsBEIRUT, Oct 9 (Reuters) - A member of Lebanon's Hezbollah was killed in Israeli bombardment in southern Lebanon on Monday, three sources in Lebanon said, as the conflict between Israel and Palestinian militants expanded to the Israeli-Lebanese border. The man was killed in Israeli shelling into southern Lebanon prompted by a cross-border raid by the Palestinian Islamic Jihad group, which has been fighting alongside the Hamas group since it launched its surprise attack on Israel on Saturday. The Israeli army said soldiers backed by helicopters killed at least two gunmen who crossed the frontier. In a statement, the Israeli military said its soldiers "killed a number of armed suspects that infiltrated into Israeli territory from Lebanese territory".

☆ Lebanon to devalue currency by 90% on Feb. 1, central bank chief says
  + stars: | 2023-01-31 | by ( Laila Bassam Maya Gebeily Timour Azhari | Laila Bassam | Maya Gebeily | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +3 min
BEIRUT, Jan 31 (Reuters) - Lebanon will adopt a new official exchange rate of 15,000 pounds per U.S. dollar on Feb. 1, central bank governor Riad Salameh said, marking a 90% devaluation from its current official rate that has remained unchanged for 25 years. The pound has lost some 97% of its value since it began to split from the 1,507 rate in 2019. In order to ease the impact of this shift, banks would be given five years "to reconstitute the losses due to the devaluation," he said. Several rates remain, including the official rate, the central bank's Sayrafa exchange platform rate which currently stands at 38,000 pounds per U.S. dollar, and the parallel market rate. While capital controls have never been formally imposed in Lebanon, banks since 2019 have imposed their own controls, severely limiting withdrawals in dollars and Lebanese pounds.
