Mohamed Salah al-Dalou (Abu Salah; Arabic: محمد صالح الدلو; 22 November 1968 – 15 October 2023) was a Palestinian head of the Palestine Table Tennis Federation (PTTF).[1][2] He had also worked in the Palestinian Supreme Council for Youth and Sports, the Palestinian Football Association, and Mujama al-Islamiya.[3]

On 15 October 2023, he, his wife and children were killed during an airstrike attack fired by Israeli Air Force on his home located in Tel al-Hawa, southwest of Gaza City, during the Israeli response to the 2023 Hamas attack on Israel.[4][5] Many official bodies mourned him, including the International Table Tennis Federation,[6] the Palestinian Supreme Council for Youth and Sports,[7] the Egypt Table Tennis Federation,[8] the Jordan Table Tennis Federation,[9] and others. The Arab Table Tennis Championship, which was scheduled to be held in Beirut at the end of November 2023, was postponed after he was killed.[10][11]
