British doctor killed in Syria

Our beloved brother and friend Isa Abdur-Rahman was killed today (22/05/13) when their hospital was shelled by the brutal Syrian regime whilst providing medical aid to the Syria civilians.

Those who knew him personally, and those who have heard of him, will know what an amazing, inspirational, kind and deeply-caring person he was. It is quite hard to where even begin describing what an amazing person he was, and all of us are still in shock.

We plan to set up an ambulance in his memory, to carry long a cause he was always passionate about - helping and being there for those who need it the most.



(The ambulance will be bought and used by the registered charity Hand in Hand for Syria - the charity Isa was working with).

I supported intervention at the start but now, the moderate groups have become far more extreme and I think any actions on the part of the West will just come back to bite them badly at the end of the conflict
