Fighting between Lebanese troops and al-Qaeda-inspired Islamic militants resumed on Tuesday after a two-day lull, with military helicopters bombing a besieged Palestinian refugee camp in northern Lebanon, the state-run National News Agency reported.

 

Army helicopters fired at least three rockets at suspected underground bunkers of Fatah Islam militants in the Saassa neighborhood of the Nahr el-Bared camp, destroying a nearby building, the report said. (AP)
