General Electricity Company in Benghazi: Blackouts in the east persist

The General Electricity Company in Benghazi said the issue of power cuts in the eastern region has not been solved entirely.
The media bureau if the GEC said the eastern electricity network is still cut Abd there are some power generating units in northern Benghazi that need reconstruction.
This comes due to inability to bring foreign companies to Benghazi currently, which could plunge the city into a summer void of electricity and power.
These GEC statements come at odds with what Al-Thanni government in the east said about electricity being provided 24\7 all around the eastern region.
