Within the context of Elio Abou Hanna’s homicide within the Palestinian camp in Lebanon by Palestinian militiamen, many are asking questions surrounding how this occurred.
Agreements such because the 1969 Cairo Settlement, in addition to casual ones, prevented Lebanese safety forces from getting into Palestinian camps and empowered the Palestinian Liberation Group (PLO) and different Palestinian factions to create efficient no-go zones and hubs of lawlessness and cesspools for criminals, militias, drug smugglers, and arms sellers for many years.
Most camps are situated on public, state-owned, or church-owned lands.
Inter-Palestinian clashes happen continuously in these camps and sometimes declare the lives of harmless Lebanese in surrounding areas who’re hit by stray bullets.
As such, we carried out polls amongst Lebanese to gauge present sentiment relating to the problems surrounding the Palestinian camps in Lebanon – right here’s how they answered:
