| 2014-05-20 |
| [AnNahar] Fatah Movement official Colonel Talal al-Ordoni survived on Monday an attempt against his life in the Paleostinian refugee camp of Ein el-Hellhole in the southern city of Sidon. Three people were maimed in the kaboom that targeted Ordoni, reported al-Jadeed television. LBCI television meanwhile said that a colonel, known as Abou Shadi, was with the Fatah official at the time of the blast. No details have yet been disclosed about Ordoni's condition. Gunmen in the camp went on alert following the attack that took place at the southern entrance of the camp. In March, Fatah Movement official Brig. Gen. Jamil Zeidan shot and killed by unknown assailants in Ein el-Hellhole. On February 2, Wissam Abul Kel, a member of Fatah, died after masked men shot him near the camp's grocery market. Ein el-Hellhole, the largest Paleostinian camp in the country, is home to about 50,000 refugees and is known to harbor turbans and runaways. By long-standing convention, the Lebanese army does not enter the country's 12 refugee camps, leaving security inside to the Paleostinians themselves. |
