Title:Very black night Lebanon - palestinian refugees camp Bourj Shemali, SEPTEMBER 13: a young boy plays with a toygun. The Burj Shemali camp is 3km east of the city of Tyre in south Lebanon. The camp was established to provide tented shelter for refugees from Hawla and Tiberias in northern Palestine in 1948. The camp suffered a great deal of damage during the years of civil conflict and much work still needs to be done to improve the infrastructure. Unemployment is extremely high in Burj Shemali. Most men find work in seasonal agriculture, construction and manual work. Women work in agriculture and as house cleaners.
