W460

Three people were wounded, including an Internal Security Forces member, in an exchange of fire in the Palestinian refugee camp of al-Bass in the southern city of Tyre, the National News Agency reported on Wednesday.

An ISF patrol was removing a construction violation in the camp of al-Bass near the EDL company in Tyre when the owners of the violations and several members form the camp started acting roughly with the security members.

The dispute had quickly escalated into a gunfire fight that led to the wounding of a municipality member and another ISF member.

An army patrol arrived at the scene and contained the situation.

NNA later added that another Palestinian named Fayyad al-Safadi was also wounded.

An ISF patrol closed the road to the camp for security reasons.

Clear the camp. Send the guests back home.

If this happened in Saudi Arabia or Egypt or France where there are Palestinians refugees. Will they shoot at the internal security? And if they do what will happen next? Saudia will hang you, Egypt will put in jail for life and France will deport you back home.
