British Prime Minister David Cameron arrived in Beirut Monday for talks focusing on the Syrian refugee crisis with Lebanese officials.

A source at Beirut airport said Cameron arrived early Monday on a private jet from London.

Cameron drove straight to the Bekaa Valley village of Torbol with an accompanying British delegation to inspect Syrian refugees living in make-shift camps.

Cameron is scheduled to meet Prime Minister Tammam Salam before he winds up his one-day Lebanon visit.

Cameron pledged earlier this month that Britain would take in "thousands more" Syrian refugees.

He also said Britain will spend a further 100 million pounds ($152 million) on humanitarian aid to address the Syrian refugee crisis.
