Hamawy’s humanitarian work has been a defining part of his public profile, particularly his medical missions to Gaza in 2024 and 2025. During one of those missions in 2024, he and his colleagues were stranded in Gaza after Israel closed the Rafah border crossing.

In a world that often defines success through rank and achievement, this story reflects a different kind of fulfillment found in presence and shared purpose.

US President Donald Trump reportedly had a tense phone conversation with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over Israel's escalating military operations in Lebanon, according to sources cited by Axios.
The exchange took place amid growing fears that the conflict could expand beyond Lebanon, with Iran warning it may abandon ongoing negotiations with Washington if Israeli strikes continue.
Axios reported that Trump sharply criticised Netanyahu's handling of the situation and called for restraint, cautioning that an attack on Beirut would further isolate Israel on the international stage. Sources said Trump's intervention also contributed to preventing a planned large-scale Israeli strike on the Lebanese capital.
