Six people, including a Fatah commander, were killed during clashes at the Ein el-Hilweh Palestinian refugee camp in Lebanon. The violence erupted between Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah movement and rival Islamist groups.

The UN agency for Palestinian refugees suspended its operations in the camp, and a ceasefire has been agreed upon.
