The smallest camp in Lebanon. Today around 660 registered Palestinian refugees. Originally Mar Elias was founded in 1952 by the Mar Elias Greek Orthodox convent to accommodate Palestine refugees from the Galilee in northern Palestine. It is located southwest of Beirut.

There is a high incidence of chronic disease in this camp, with many refugees suffering from hypertension, cancer and diabetes.

The infrastructure needs comprehensive rehabilitation.
