The clashes died down for a short time in the afternoon, after al Fatah Islam said it would observe a ceasefire if the army also did.
But within an hour of the truce offer being made, heavy exchanges of fire and several explosions were heard.
It was not known which side started firing.
The UN used the afternoon lull in fighting to deliver food, water and medical supplies to the camp, home to 40,000 Palestinian refugees

It's been going on for donkey's years. However, some folk say that this region is the cancer on our planet and if/when WWIII starts it'll start here. I'm glad I don't live there and pity anyone who does. I'm sure the majority of citizens are normal folk like you and me who just want a normal, peaceful life.
