Clashes At Ein Al-Hilwa Refugee Camp In Lebanon

On March 21, Fatah and Jund Al-Shaam clashed at the Ein Al-Hilwa refugee camp in Lebanon.

The clashes abated following a ceasefire.

The Lebanese daily Al-Mustaqbal reported that the clashes resulted from the arrest of senior Jund Al-Shaam official Hussam Ma'rouf by Fatah members, and his extradition to Lebanese authorities.

Palestinian sources said that Ma'rouf was suspected of having links to a Mossad espionage network.
