NAHR AL-BARED – Lebanese troops shelled a Palestinian refugee camp in north Lebanon where al Qaeda-inspired militants remained holed up yesterday.

Intermittent bursts of gunfire and shell explosions were heard through the day at Fatah al-Islam’s base in Nahr al-Bared camp, a sprawling shantytown which has been pounded by army artillery in more than two weeks of fighting.Nampa-ReutersIntermittent bursts of gunfire and shell explosions were heard through the day at Fatah al-Islam’s base in Nahr al-Bared camp, a sprawling shantytown which has been pounded by army artillery in more than two weeks of fighting.Nampa-Reuters
