Houssein Hamze, Saved by a Dog, Remains Committed to Lebanon's Animals Amid War

28 Temmuz 2026The Guardian

Houssein Hamze, founder of the Mashala shelter in Lebanon, has dedicated his life to caring for animals, especially during wartime. His commitment was solidified when a dog saved him from a bomb during the 2006 war against Hezbollah.
Now, he serves as a vital lifeline for stray animals in the region amidst ongoing conflict. Hamze believes that animals possess a unique intuition that can often protect humans from danger.
Lebanon has faced numerous conflicts, with the 2006 war being particularly devastating. Amidst the chaos, many animals are left abandoned or in dire need of care.
Hamze's story highlights the often-overlooked bond between humans and animals, particularly in times of crisis. His actions raise important questions about the role of compassion in conflict zones and the responsibilities we hold towards vulnerable beings.
