While poverty remains the most visible feature of Beirut’s Shatila refugee camp, daily survival is no longer the residents’ primary concern. Instead, one issue dominates both conversations and alleyways: the uncertain fate of weapons inside the camp.

A Palestinian delegation led by Azzam al-Ahmad, Secretary of the Executive Committee of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), is expected to arrive in Beirut on Sunday.

Palestinian camps in Tyre, South Lebanon, were not spared from the recent Israeli aggression, enduring direct bombing and repeated attacks within the city and its vicinity.

At the core of Palestinian concerns is reassurance regarding UNRWA’s continued operations. The agency represents a critical safety net, and its disappearance could spark unprecedented humanitarian crises that complicate any potential "peace negotiations".

UNRWA’s service cuts and staff suspensions spark anger in Ain al-Hilweh camp, while Mahmoud Abbas pushes a disarmament agenda, bypassing Palestinian factions and fueling tensions.
