On this page about Sabra and Shatila massacre:
The Sabra and Shatila massacre (or Sabra and Chatila massacre; Arabic: صبرا وشاتيلا) was carried out in September 1982 by a Lebanese Forces militia group against Palestinian refugee camps. The Lebanese Forces group stood under the direct command of Elie Hobeika, who would later become a longtime Lebanese parliament member and in the 1990s also a cabinet minister. The number of victims of the massacre is estimated at 700-3500 (see below).
The camps were surrounded by Israeli Defence Forces throughout the incident. The degree to which the Israeli military was involved in the incident is a matter of controversy (see below).
