The Palestinian refugee camp of Ain al-Hilweh has been witnessing a state of escalating tension since Wednesday's early morning hours. The state continues despite efforts to water down tension through a new initiative that is supposed to impose a ceasefire.
The new initiative was concluded last night during a meeting between Hamas and Fatah leaderships in Beirut, which in turn informed the other Palestinian factions and political forces in Sidon.
A meeting will be taking place at 11:00 a.m. today at the Palestinian joint forces headquarters in Ain al-Hilweh to discuss the new initiative which calls for the full deployment of joint forces in Hay al-Tira, under the support of the National Security Force of Fatah.
Meanwhile, extremists Bilal Bader and Bilal al-Arkoub remain wanted by the joint forces.
