LONDON- Lebanon's dollar-denominated government bonds rose on Tuesday after reports that Saudi Arabia is preparing to support Lebanon through its economic challenges.

The 2024, 2025 and 2027 issues all climbed more than 0.8 cents in the dollar after three Lebanese ex-premiers on Monday indicated Saudi might provide fresh backing to heavily indebted Lebanon.
