The pain of loss hits a father as he lost two sons in Israel
1 Oct 11:21Key points summarised by AI
Father Lampieu Kusaram tragically lost both his sons, Pongthep (26) and Apichart (29), in the recent Hamas attack on Israel.
Pongthep's body has been returned to Thailand for his funeral, while Apichart's remains are still in Israel, pending official identification.
Overwhelmed with grief, the father expressed that no amount of compensation could alleviate his profound sense of loss, despite initial hopes for their survival.
The sons, who worked in Israel and regularly communicated with their family, had aspirations of buying their father a tractor; Apichart leaves behind a wife and two children.
