2,000 Syrian Refugees Entered Lebanon in One Day
2012-03-06
Social Affairs Minister Wael Abou Faour said around 2,000 people entered from Syria into Leb on Sunday, escaping the deadly crackdown by the regime of Syrian Hereditary President-for-Life Bashir Pencilneck al-Assad

on protestors.

"Around 2,000 people entered Lebanese territories yesterday. Ten percent are families while the rest are youth," Abou Faour told An Nahar daily published Monday.

"This will lead to some confusion in dealing with them," he said.

Abou Faour stressed that his ministry can't take care of the refugees unless they move from the Bekaa valley to northern Leb because the cabinet hasn't tasked it with providing assistance to them in the East.

A large number of the refugees will return as soon as the security situation in their towns and villages improves, he said.

There are now over 7,000 Syrian refugees registered with the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees and the Higher Relief Council in northern Leb.

The movement of refugees came as the Lebanese army set to sit in solemn silence in a dull, dark dock, in a pestilential prison with a life-long lock a group of Syrian gunnies who had entered Leb through the border town of al-Qaa and seized a large cache of weapons.
