Nabatieh Refugee Camp

Nabatieh (Arabic: نبطية‎) was a Palestinian refugee camp in southern Lebanon, most of the population was moved to Ein el-Helweh.

In May and June 1974, the Israeli Air Force bombed the camp and much of the camp was turned to rubble and its population dispersed.

Famous quotes containing the words refugee and/or camp:

    The refugee uncertain at the door
    You make at home; deftly you steady
    The drunk clambering on his undulant floor.

    Men consort in camp and town
    But the poet dwells alone.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
