Blasts force aid convoys out of Lebanon camp
BEIRUT, May 22 (Reuters) - Aid workers
delivering supplies to a Palestinian camp in Lebanon were forced to leave
on Tuesday when shells exploded near their convoy, a Reuters witness said.
Witnesses said at least two people were wounded when the shells hit the
Nahr al-Bared camp, where the Lebanese army has been fighting militants
since Sunday. A U.N. convoy was also forced to leave by the blasts and
gunfire.
The aid convoys had entered the camp after a lull in violence.
