Pierre al-Rahi

Male Verified

Father Pierre al-Rahi was the Maronite Catholic parish priest of Qlayaa, a Christian village of about 8,000 inhabitants in southern Lebanon's Marjayoun district. He was killed on 9 March 2026 when he rushed to help the wounded occupants of a house that had been struck twice by an Israeli Merkava tank. He had refused Israeli evacuation orders the day before, telling France24 he would remain to defend his village peacefully.
