 | | "The government green-light is always there to storm the Nahr al-Bared camp," Abbas Zakki, the representative of the Palestine Liberation Organization in Lebanon (PLO), told the Doha-based Al-Jazeera channel.
He said the PLO backed the army crackdown on the militant group Fatah al-Islam inside the camp.
Zakki was also quoted by Agence France-Presse (AFP) as saying that he had been told by Premier Fouad Siniora that "concrete measures will be taken to put an end to the hostage-taking of the camp".
