![]() Lebanon bulldozers wait for orders to enter the Palestinian Nahr al-Bared refugee camp in northern Lebanon June 21, 2007. The Lebanese army's insistence on the surrender of the leaders of a militant group holed up at a Palestinian camp is complicating efforts to mediate an end to fighting there, a Palestinian political source said on Thursday. A Lebanese security source confirmed the army wants the surrender of Fatah al-Islam leader Shaker al-Absi and his military commander known as Abu Huraira. Both were severely wounded but vowed not to surrender . The army insists that the militants are terrorists and murderers and they should be tried in court . Prime Minister Fouad Siniora promised a fair trial. |
