Abdul Rahman Bachnati

Abdul Rahman Bachnati, Lebanese born in 1976, is a civil defense volunteer. On August 4, 2020, he left his coffee cart and joined his teammates at the fire department as soon as he heard about a fire erupting in the port of Beirut. However, the intensity of the blast pushed a wooden cabinet on his body, his left leg was trapped under the rubble, and he developed gangrene. His health condition worsened day after day, and he needed an open-heart surgery he couldn’t afford (40 Million LBP). He spent the remainder of his days battling with pain until he passed away on September 27, 2022.
