"Evacuation Urged: Saudi Arabia and Bahrain Advise Citizens to Depart Lebanon Amidst Palestinian Camp Clashes"

Saudi Arabia and Bahrain have urged their citizens to leave Lebanon after a week of internal fighting between Fatah and Islamist groups in the Ein el-Hilweh Palestinian refugee camp. The clashes have resulted in 13 deaths, dozens of injuries, and the displacement of thousands. Fatah has accused the Islamists of killing a Fatah military general. Lebanon's caretaker prime minister has called for an end to the violence and warned that Lebanese troops may intervene. The Lebanese army generally does not enter the Palestinian camps, which are controlled by various factions. Palestinian refugees and their descendants do not receive the same rights and benefits as Lebanese citizens.
