SIDON, Lebanon: The Lebanese Army Monday blocked roads leading to the Palestinian refugee camp of Bass in the southern town of Tyre, demanding the handover of a shooting suspect.
The military tightened its cordon around the camp, blocking its entrance and several inner streets leading to it, a security source told The Daily Star.
The measures are aimed at pressuring the camp’s residents to hand over a suspect involved in a recent shooting.
A Lebanese and Palestinian family engaged in a personal dispute Sunday night, renewing clashes between the two over financial issues.
No casualties were reported.
The dispute is between a man from the Beit Hajjo family and his cousin from the Palestinian Dreiz family.
