At least 10 guerrillas were killed in Lebanon’s largest refugee camp as Palestinian supporters of Yasser Arafat and opponents of his peace accord with Israel battled with rockets, mortars and machine guns. The clashes between the factions, which have fought repeatedly over the past two years, ended with a cease-fire. Palestinian sources said that in addition to the guerrillas killed, 30 were wounded in and around Ein el Hilwa camp, home to about 80,000 refugees, near the southern city of Sidon.
