Remembering Issam Abdallah, Reuters Journalist Killed Covering Israeli Missile Strikes in Lebanon

YouTube
And just came across a post by Erika Solomon, who used to work for #Reuters with videographer #Issam #Abdallah :
"Issam was the sweetest colleague. He let me take a kitten I was nursing on assignment once, and made it a bed in his helmet. But he always reminded me, whenever I got careless: “Our goal is to cover the news, not become it”. I am so sorry this happened to you my dear Issam. RIP."

"Reuters said in a statement that Issam Abdallah had been killed while providing a live video signal for broadcasters. The camera was pointed at a hillside when a loud explosion shook the camera, filling the air with smoke, and screams were heard."
