During the Lebanese armed conflict, Ali lost a leg and an arm, while Qassem lost both legs. However, their will to live was stronger than their traumatic experience.
With the aid of the ICRC's Prosthetics Rehabilitation Program, Ali & Qassem received the prosthesis, which helped them pursue their dreams. Ali is now conducting his Ph.D. in the International Humanitarian Law, and Qassem is now a renowned romantic writer.
