Untitled 402 (Nahr El Bared 1/15)

Posted by Benoit Darrieux (Tripoli, Lebanon) on 4 November 2008 in Documentary & Street.

This is a picture of the main entrance of the former Palestinan camp of Nahr El Bared, located in north Lebanon up to Tripoli. If you remember well the news from nearly 1 year ago, this camp has been completly destroyed by the Lebanese army. The fights took place during 4 months in the camp. Around 150 lebanese soldiers and 300 palestinans fighters have been killed at this time. The access of the camp is now totally forbidden. Due to the massive lebanese bombings on the camp during these 4 months, it is estimated of 2 years the time to clean and remove all the non exploded items...

This is the first pic of a serie inside Nahr El Bared camp.
