Schoolboy hero saved 100 from terror attack
Daily Express

A SCHOOLBOY has been hailed a hero for rescuing more than 100 people from the Moscow massacre.
As terrorists started shooting concert-goers, Islam Khalilov was working part-time as a cloakroom attendant at the Crocus City Hall venue.
Because the 15-year-old was familiar with the vast building, he could guide the terrified people to exits.
Footage has emerged of Khalilov's bravery and quick-thinking on Friday in helping the fleeing crowd out via an emergency stairway.
He shouts: "That way, that way, that way. Everybody go that way. Everybody over there." Khalilov later explained he saw people running in terror with one man being shot right in front of him.
