New fighting erupts at besieged Lebanon camp

Fighting erupted again on Friday between troops besieging a Palestinian refugee camp in northern Lebanon and Islamist militants holed up inside, as the stand-off entered its 13th day. There were no immediate reports of casualties in the fire fight at Nahr al-Bared, located on the Mediterranean coast 90km north of the capital, Beirut.
