In the Meantime; See a Need, Fill a Need

3 painters from Nahr el-Bared who have had to leave their camp because of the fighting, and are currently stuck with family at the nearby Bedawi camp waiting for the fighting to stop, have decided that they should try their hand at shaving and cutting hair. They offer their services for free.
“I’ve always wondered what it is like to do this job,” said one, and so they decided to open up shop out in the open. He actually enjoyed it quite a bit. Back in the Nahr el-Bared camp he has a paint shop, although he already knows that the paint shop no longer is. “Bombed by the Lebanese army.”
Depending on who you speak with, you get a different version of who this Fatah Islam groups is, and who bankrolls them. I’ve heard like 7 different versions now. I guess we’ll have to wait and see what the army is going to show us.

So for a free shave and hair cut in the Bedawi camp, on the sidewalk near the baker, and it is for Nahr el-Bared residents only.
He mentioned that Hamas was paying for the operation. I somehow doubt that.
