Lebanon

The Lebanese Army has tightened the cordon around the Nahr el-Bared Palestinian refugee camp, where 50 have been killed in battles between the Army and al Qaeda affiliate Fatah al-Islam. The Army shelled the camp today. A bombing in a Christian neighborhood in Beirut killed 1 and wounded 12.
