A week of clashes... 15 dead and 150 wounded in “Ain al-Hilweh”

The clashes in the Ain al-Hilweh camp, in their current round, have ended their first week in the absence of solutions and the failure of all attempts to stop the bloody events and their continuation in light of the repercussions of the crisis that Sidon and the entire region are experiencing.


The climax of these clashes was yesterday afternoon, with the fighting fronts and axes intensifying all at once, lasting until after midnight, stopping on the Hattin-Jabal al-Halib neighborhood front from the south-eastern side of the camp, and continuing intermittently on the other side of the camp from the northern side, in the Al-Baraksat-Emergency axis. According to what was reported by the official Lebanese News Agency.


In the clashes, flare bombs were used for the first time in the skies of the camp, and new types of artillery and rocket shells were introduced, the sound of their explosions being heard in distant places in the depths of the south, which led to the ignition of fires inside the houses located in the fighting axes and the targeted places, and a massive wave of displacement of people, which included neighbourhoods. New ones as a result of the intensification of the indiscriminate bombing that affected them.


Since its outbreak last Thursday, the toll has reached 15 dead and more than 150 wounded.
