| 2004-10-15 |
| There was a moment when Vika Kallagova could have fled the hellish maelstrom of bullets, screams and explosions that School No. 1 had become on the first day of September. But the 13-year-old chose not to. Her 8-year-old sister Olya was inside the school, trapped with hundreds of other children and adults by nearly three dozen heavily armed militants. So Vika went back in. Story continued at link. |
