In the final hours before the April 2026 ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah, paramedic Fadel Hamadi captured what he hopes will become a definitive record for international investigators.

Seeking Justice Through Documentation
- Refute Official Claims: Directly counter allegations that medical transports were being used for non-humanitarian purposes.
- Formalize Evidence: Provide high-definition, time-stamped proof for human rights organizations and international courts.
