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."
