Lebanon divided into two time zones amidst daylight savings dispute.

TL;DR Summary
Lebanon's last-minute decision to delay the start of daylight savings time by a month until the end of Ramadan has resulted in mass confusion, with some institutions implementing the change while others refused. The debate took on a sectarian nature, with many Christian politicians and institutions rejecting the move. The schism has led to jokes about "Muslim time" and "Christian time," while different internet search engines came up with different results early Sunday morning when queried about the current time in Lebanon.
