“I shall never abjectly yield to you, and I shall never submissively acknowledge you”

Martyr Ibrahim Khalil Khalaf

Ibrahim Khalil Khalaf was born on the 7th of January, 1977 in Bashoura - Beirut.

Since youth, Ibrahim had a special character, as he was a very smart, active, organized and confident little boy.

He joined the Islamic Resistance after the liberation of South Lebanon in year 2000. Since then he spared no effort to help and serve the mujahedeen, until everyone recognized his special character and high morals.

Ibrahim was honest and faithful in all his deeds and his constant speech was about his dream and desire for martyrdom.

In the Battlefield:

He underwent various military courses, but his first confrontation ever with the Zionist entity was in July war year 2006.

On the 2nd of August, 2006 at 4:00 a.m., an Israeli force penetrated into the Southern village of Mhaibeeb. Resistance fighters were deployed in various spots in that village, and Ibrahim was among them.

The Israelis began jamming the resistance fighters’ wireless sets, and bombarding various spots in the village.

A confrontation later took place, after the Israeli soldiers tried to penetrate into a house where the fighters resided.

This caused the death of various Zionists and the injury of many others, as well as the injury of Ibrahim.

The Two parts withdrew from the house, and each side chose a different location for itself. But as soon as he started feeling better, Ibrahim took his arms and headed towards the Zionists in an attempt to wage a surprise attack, but the two parts engaged in an exchange of fire, which led to the martyrdom of Ibrahim.
