The clashes already caused death to one and few were injured, in addition to causing fears and chaos state inside the camp which pushed many of PRS families to flee and seek safe shelters in other places such as the nearby Sidon City, according to field sources.
As a reminder, a significant decrease in numbers of PRS families in Ein-Elhilweh had been noted over the course of the last two years. The number dropped from 2500 in 2014 to 1400 in 2015, while the latest census in 2016 revealed that only 870 families are remaining inside the camp.
This drop comes as a result of the tense situation and security deterioration in the camp every now and then, which pushed the majority of PRS families to leave and seek asylum in Europe, while some of them who were not able to arrive in Europe had no choice but to risk their lives and return back to Syria.
