The Palestinian factions in Lebanon underscored Thursday the necessity to boost the Lebanese-Palestinian relations, stressing that the security of camps is part of the Lebanese and Palestinian general security and a factor of stability and national peace, the National News Agency (NNA) reported.

The political command of the factions held a meeting at the Palestinian embassy in Beirut, focusing on the security condition of Palestinian camps, the report said.

The Palestinian command said in a statement that it has been decided to form a delegation to meet with the army intelligence director in south Lebanon in order to preserve security in the camps and neighboring regions and prevent the camps from becoming a channel to disturb the Lebanese Palestinian relations.
