Nabatieh refugee camp

Nabatieh (Arabic: نبطية‎) was a Palestinian refugee camp in southern Lebanon that was destroyed between the years 1982-1991. 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.

¹ The UNRWA definition of a "Palestinian refugee" is a person "whose normal place of residence was Palestine between June 1946 and May 1948, who lost both their homes and means of livelihood as a result of the 1948 Arab-Israeli conflict ... UNRWA's definition of a refugee also covers the descendants of persons who became refugees in 1948." [1]
