Fighting breaks out at a second refugee camp in Lebanon

Soliders and militants from Jund Ash Sham are fighting in the Ein Al Helwa camp in the south of Lebanon near Sidon. Ein Al Helwa is the largest camp in the country.

It happened after militants threw a grenade at an army checkpoint.

Jund Ash Sham has carried out a number of terror attacks across Syria, and also in Qatar, over the past decade.
