In a statement on Sunday, Hamas warned that the popular moves could escalate until the injustice and discrimination against the Palestinian refugees in Lebanon were removed.
The Movement reiterated its rejection of any action harming the Palestinian refugees’ interests and rights in Lebanon, stressing the need for revoking any measure or law restricting or targeting their humanitarian and social rights.
It called on the Lebanese minister of labor to necessarily redress his decision or refer the issue immediately to the government, adding that the Palestinian in Lebanon must be treated as a refugee and not a foreigner.
