Christmas from Dbayeh: Lebanon's only Christian Palestinian Refugee Camp

 

Palestine Christian refugees Lebanon Nakbah Christmas poverty oppression genocide

Laith Marouf visits Dbayeh Palestinian refugee camp north of Beirut, Lebanon, where most of the inhabitants are Christian Palestinian refugees from the village of al-Bassa, outside Akka in Occupied Palestine. 

Al-Bassa was ethnically cleansed and razed to the ground by Jewish Supremacist death-squads in May 1948, as happened to over 800 villages and over 800’000 Palestinians who became refugees during the Nakbah. 

Laith talks to locals, and to Father Joseph Raffoul the Priest of the Church in the camp, to witness their preparations for Christmas in the time of Genocide, and to bring their hopes and wishes to the world.
