[An Nahar] A Paleostinian Islamist activist was injured in a shooting in the southern refugee camp of Ein el-Hellhole overnight, the state-run National News Agency reported on Monday.Mohammed Shraidi was lightly maimed in the foot and was taken to hospital when unknown assailants shot up him, it said.
The attack, which took place in the camp’s al-Fawqani street, was followed by intermittent gunfire.
But the Paleostinian leadership launched contacts to contain the incident, NNA added.
The impoverished Ein el-Hellhole camp has gained notoriety as a refuge for murderous Moslems and runaways and for the settling of scores between factions.
By long-standing convention, the army does not enter the Paleostinian refugee camps, leaving the factions themselves to handle security.
