Lebanese man dresses up as a woman to buy fuel

Viral clip shows a crowd poking fun at him

Avideo of a Lebanese man who dressed up as a woman to be able to buy some fuel at a ladies-only fuel station has gone viral on social media.

The clip shows a crowd of people around the man in disguise laughing at him with some other men asking him to give them a “kiss”. The man is seen wearing a “wig” and women’s clothes, but workers at the fuel station realised he was a man. He, however, got his fuel after everyone in the scene fell into a fit of hysterical laughter.

Lebanon is facing an acute shortage of fuel due to the lack of sufficient foreign exchange which have affected imports, causing frequent power cuts and a severe fuel shortage.
