Tyre, Lebanon
Military police bases were built inside new IDF bases in Beirut, [[Sidon]], [[Tyre, Lebanon|Tyre]] and the [[Beqaa Valley]]. A permanent POW camp was built in [[Ansar, Lebanon|Ansar]], which operated until 1985. The base in Tyre suffered two explosions and MPs were killed in both - 12 in the first bombing on November 11, 1982, and several more on November 4, 1983. These events became known as the [[Tyre Catastrophe]]s.
