Ein-el-Hellhole phoning in bomb threats to Beirut
2006-02-03
The Lebanese army revealed Thursday that a phone call was received Wednesday night from a public booth in the Palestinian Refugee camp of Ain Al-Helweh predicting an impending bomb attack against the army. The army said in a statement that recent attacks against Lebanese army posts on the outskirts of the camp were preceded by similar calls.

The callers demanded the immediate release of Palestinian detainees in connection with terrorist acts including Umm Al-Walid and her daughter, who was engaged to get married to Badih Hamadeh. He was caught by the authorities after he shot dead three Lebanese army soldiers.

On Wednesday night, Feb 1 2006, a similar phone call was received prior to an attack against an army barracks in West Beirut. A local daily, Al-Balad said it had received a similar phone call Wednesday about an impending attack against an army barracks. The hand grenade attack had injured a soldier and caused material damage to nearby cars and houses.
