What you will see
Bāneh is outside the path of totality, so the Sun is never fully covered. At the peak, 13:42:13 local time, the Moon hides 45% of the Sun. The partial eclipse starts at 12:33:36 and ends at 14:47:16, 2 h 14 min later.
At the peak the Sun is 66° above the horizon, towards the south-west, so you want a clear view in that direction from Bāneh.

Seeing totality
The nearest edge of the path of totality is about 1,543 km south-west of Bāneh.
The nearest place on this site with at least a minute of totality is Al Quşayr, about 1,557 km south-west, where totality lasts 2 m 19 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.
