entry description
Hoshyar is a Peshmerga brigadier general from Iraqi Kurdistan, who lost two legs on two separate explosive devices. From then, he devoted his entire life to clear mines wherever he can find them, even in the front line, risking his own life every time. Seven public buildings are named after him, being him still alive. They consider him a hero.back to gallery
