Скачать или смотреть True Story of the Nurse Executed for Saving Lives

During World War I, British nurse Edith Cavell was working in German-occupied Belgium, treating wounded soldiers from both sides without discrimination. Secretly, she also helped around 200 Allied soldiers escape to safety — a decision driven by compassion, not politics. When the Germans discovered her actions, Edith was arrested, put on trial by a military court, and quickly found guilty of aiding the enemy. Despite international outcry and pleas for mercy from ambassadors around the world, she was executed by firing squad at dawn on October 12, 1915. She refused a blindfold, choosing instead to face her death with open eyes, and her final words were a call for peace: “I must have no hatred or bitterness toward anyone.”
