Sleep Apnea Study Led by Doctor Murdered in the Oct. 7 Hamas Terrorist Attack Published in Peer-Reviewed Journal

By Shula Rosen
A peer-reviewed medical study led by an Israeli physician murdered while treating patients during the Oct. 7 Hamas attack has been published in a leading international journal, following a contentious review process that colleagues say included resistance to acknowledging how he was killed.

Dr. Daniel Levi, an ear, nose and throat specialist at Soroka Medical Center, was among those killed when terrorists from Hamas assaulted Kibbutz Be’eri. Levi was working at the kibbutz clinic, which had been converted into an emergency treatment site, when he was killed by a gr***de explosion shortly before 2 p.m.

The study Levi initiated before his death was published this month in Clinical Otolaryngology, listing him as a lead author.

The research examines the safety of surgery for obstructive sleep apnea in infants and toddlers, a population often viewed as having elevated surgical risk. According to the authors, Levi and Dr. Daniel Yafit contributed equally to the work.
