Thanks to Google Lens I can tell you that the two in the middle are regional revenue stamps from Libya. see this reference page:

The first stamp you will find in Scott under Tripolitania... #C38. Scott is really confused with stamps from Libya, Cyrenaica, and Tripolitania, and quite frequently has stamps from these 'countries' mixed up. From 1923, commemorative stamps for the two constituent parts of Libya (Tripolitania and Cyrenaica) were issued concurrently with the general issues of Libya until 1934.

Thanks Gents, i thought the Fezzan stamps might have been cinderellas or fakes...i was wrong. I do not know how the Lebanon revenue got in with them. I should have known about the Libya Cyrenaica situation. thanks again for the replies.
