Sabra and Shatila Refugee Camps
- Sabra and Shatila Refugee Camps
Among the tragic aspects of the
War in Lebanon (1982) was the September 1982 massacre by Christian Phalangist forces of
Palestinians at the Sabra and Shatila refugee camps in the Beirut area. The resultant anguish within Israel over possible Israeli involvement led to the decision to create a
commission of inquiry, headed by
supreme court chief justice Yitzhak Kahan.
