Nabatieh refugee camp

Palestinian refugee camp in southern Lebanon
Primary education in Nabatieh Camp in the 1960s

Nabatieh (Arabic: نبطية) was a Palestinian refugee camp in southern Lebanon.

In May and June 1974, the Israeli Air Force bombed the camp, reducing most of it to rubble and dispersing the survivors, many of whom were moved to Ein el-Helweh.

The 1974 film They Do Not Exist by Palestinian filmmaker Mustafa Abu Ali documents the destruction of Nabatieh refugee camp.[1]
