The night before 31-year-old Red Cross paramedic Hassan Badawi was killed, he called his pregnant wife to tell her that Israeli bombing in Lebanon was “everywhere”, but that he could not leave the wounded behind.
In comments made to Al Jazeera, his mother, Ahlam Badawi, and his father, Ali, remembered their son as a selfless “hero” who “in every war, used to be the first to go”.
