War's Bitter Toll on Lebanon's First Responders The Al Jazeera documentary "The Ones We Couldn't Save" shines a light on the human cost of war in southern Lebanon, where Israeli attacks continue to claim lives and disrupt the fragile calm.

Ali Safiuddin, head of the Civil Defence in Tyre, is one such figure. His career has been marked by loss, including the death of his one year old daughter Lynn during the 2006 war between Israel and Hezbollah.
