Armed clashes broke out on Friday in the Palestinian refugee camp of Ein al-Hilweh in the Lebanese capital Beirut leaving two people dead and nine injured.
The clashes erupted between elements of the wanted Bilal Abu Arqoub’s group and members of the Joint Forces.
Trading gunfire soon escalated into launching missiles tossing bombs and sniping operations resulting in the death of the son of Bilal Abu Arqoub Obeida. Nine others were injured during the clashes.
Later in the morning a member of the Joint Forces succumbed to his wounds.
The Palestinian political leadership then called for an emergency meeting to stop the fighting.
