TRIPOLI, Lebanon - Under the cover of artillery, the Lebanese army on Friday moved against Islamic militants barricaded inside a Palestinian refugee camp, claiming tanks and armored carriers had "tightened the ring" around the group and urging surrender.
Artillery barrages began in the morning, targeting the Nahr el-Bared camp where Fatah Islam militants have holed up for 13 days among narrow, winding streets and apartment buildings. The army later called on the militants to surrender and urged Palestinians not to provide them a safe haven.
The statement said the army had "tightened the ring" around the group in fighting Friday; some militants had retreated deeper into the camp and had taken civilians as "human shields," the statement said.
