What you will see
Lahān is outside the path of totality, so the Sun is never fully covered. At the peak, 16:52:04 local time, the Moon hides 2.7% of the Sun. The partial eclipse starts at 16:29:05 and ends at 17:14:25, 45 min later.
At the peak the Sun is 24° above the horizon, towards the west, so you want a clear view in that direction from Lahān.

Seeing totality
The nearest edge of the path of totality is about 3,657 km south-west of Lahān.
The nearest place on this site with at least a minute of totality is El Dibir, about 4,039 km west, where totality lasts 3 m 26 s.
Totality is shortest at the edges of the path and longest along the centre line, so the further inside you go, the longer it lasts.
Eye safety guide: Never look at the Sun without certified eclipse glasses, except during totality.
