The head of the Farmers and Agriculturalists Syndicate of Baalbek, Ibrahim Al-Tarshishi, confirmed that there is no truth to the rumors about Egyptian authorities banning the import of 23 types of fruits from Lebanon, including apples and peaches. He pointed out that fruit exports to Egypt have not stopped at any moment, and specifically today, quantities of Lebanese apples and fruits are being exported to Egypt. He stated, "Exports between the two countries are ongoing smoothly without any obstacles." Al-Tarshishi expressed great gratitude to the Egyptians who provide various facilitation for Lebanese export convoys, emphasizing the strong relations that connect Lebanon and Egypt.
