"Beacon of Light": Fellow Doctors Recall Dr. Hammam Alloh, Gaza Doctor Killed by Israeli Airstrike

We speak with two physicians who knew Dr. Hammam Alloh, a Palestinian nephrologist at Gaza's Al-Shifa Hospital who was killed Saturday in an Israeli airstrike. They recall him as a committed physician, wonderful father" and beacon of light." He had refused to heed Israeli directives to evacuate in order to continue providing care to his patients. He spent a decade learning how to serve his people," says Dr. Tanya Haj-Hassan with Doctors Without Borders. He wanted his children to be able to see a day when they had a free, just, durable, free life in Palestine, without occupation," says Dr. Ben Thomson, a fellow nephrologist who worked with Dr. Alloh.
