The fearless young hero who stopped a suicide bomber from entering his school and saved hundreds of lives, 2014
On January 6th, 2014, 15-year-old Aitzaz Hasan looked death right in its eyes and challenged it. The young man was attending his high school in Hangu Village in Pakistan, which had a reputation for anti-terrorist attitudes. The school had an estimated student body of 2,000 students.
As he was walking to school with two friends, Hasan noticed a suspicious man walking towards the school, who seemed like he was carrying something under his clothes. Hasan and his friends then noticed there was a detonator attached to under the man's clothing. This mysterious man was a suicide bomber who was about to walk into the school to murder as many children as possible. Hasan made his way towards the terrorist while ignoring his friend's pleas not to. Hasan said to them "I'm going to stop him, he is going to school to kill my friends". Hasan's friends ran inside the school to raise the alarm. Hasan, however, stood his ground. He threw a rock at his attacker but missed. With no other options, Hasan charged the terrorist and tackled him to the ground. In response, the terrorist activated the detonator, killing himself as well as Hasan.
Hasan was the only death as a result of the blast. His heroic actions saved many lives that day. His school was renamed Aitzaz Hasan Shaheed High School. General of the army staff Raheel Sharif said that Aitzaz Hasan is "a national hero, who has sacrificed his today for our tomorrow." He is also described as a "symbol of resistance against terrorism." He has also been named as a martyr of Pakistan. He also received an award for his bravery.
Hasan's family was given compensation. His father said, "My son made his mother cry but saved hundreds of mothers from crying for their children." The 2016 film, Salute, is based on Hasan and his heroic actions.
My friend and I were on the way to markaz when we saw this old man around 10pm, barely managed to sell a single balloon the whole day. What broke my heart was that he was all quiet when we asked him wether he was okay instead he just literally kept quiet. THREAD:
Last Friday around 10 am my mother got a call from police that my brother died in an accident on 9th Feb 12:44 am on Main Margalla road right in front of Beaconhouse F-7/3 campus every single evidence proves my brother was innocent and the driver was overspeeding 1/3
I know people who had to sell their shops/properties to get their loved ones treated. In Naya Pakistan that wont happen.
🇵🇰 a population of 220 million + ppl, Punjab its largest province with 110 million will now have Uni Health Coverage. Never thought this was possible.
In Pakistan, celebrity/influencer 'meet & greet' means, hey please come grope me, assault me, fling me around for hours & tear of my clothes because 'i'm asking for it'.
Then, when I don't fit the image of a good helpless victim, call it a PR stunt
Our culture my foot.
