Lebanon army, militants fight on at refugee camp

Heavy fighting erupted on Tuesday between the Lebanese army and Islamist militants at a Palestinian camp which has been the battleground for Lebanon's bloodiest internal violence since the civil war.

A military source described the fighting as heavier than usual at the Nahr al-Bared camp, where the army's battle with the al Qaeda-inspired militants of Fatah al-Islam is now in its fourth week. (Reuters)
