Lebanese lawyer Ahmad Alawiyye was killed in action in southern Lebanon. He had decided to leave his law practice to go south and confront the Israeli invasion.

Honor and glory to this brave fighter.

🫡 rest in power, may your sacrifice be not in vain, fida'i

Is that Arabic? Regardless, it was a shame that someone like that died.

The word fidāʾiyy (Arabic: فدائي; plural: فدائيون fidāʾiyyūn (standard) or فدائيين fidāʾiyyīn (informal), often rendered in English as 'fedayeen') means 'sacrifice' or 'one who sacrifices himself' (a literal translation of fidāʾiyyīn might be "martyrs"). The Palestinian fedayeen are militants or guerrillas of a nationalist orientation from among the Palestinian people. Most Palestinians consider the fedayeen to be "freedom fighters".

It is tragic, LZ. If there were no Zionist Entity, there would be no need of people like him dying.

I bet he would have been a damn good lawyer with that level of actual integrity. RIP comrade.
