Karameh rebuilds as 64 families return to shattered town
Sixty four families resettle Karameh on the east bank of the Jordan River, aided by Lutherans and local refugees. The town regrows with four coffee shops eight groceries a barber shop two butcher shops a bakery and 32 chicken farms as UN relief funds strain and border controls affect marketing and services.
