Retired Boxer Heroically Disarms Airport Attacker, Saves Hostage in Kazakhstan

Musa Abdraim, a 52-year-old retired boxer and father of five, stepped in to save a 21-year-old female security officer from a knife-wielding attacker at Almaty Airport, Kazakhstan—and he did it with his bare hands.
The terrifying standoff erupted at the airport security checkpoint when a 67-year-old man refused to show his ID.
Suddenly, he pulled out a knife, grabbed security officer Botagoz Mukhtarova by the hair, and pressed the blade against her throat. He then claimed to have a bomb, threatening to detonate it using his phone.
Passengers and security personnel looked on in shock. The scene was pure chaos. But in the middle of the panic, one man stepped forward.
Abdraim, who had just arrived at the airport to see off family members, immediately assessed the danger and acted. With no hesitation, Abdraim offered himself as a replacement hostage.
"Take me instead," he told the attacker.
To everyone’s surprise, the knifeman agreed, releasing the young woman and grabbing Abdraim.
This wasn’t just bravery—it was strategy. Abdraim, trained in boxing, martial arts, and kickboxing, understood how to read an opponent. He knew that to stop the attacker, he had to get close enough to strike.
Then, when the moment was right, he lunged at the knife, grabbing it with his bare hands.
A violent struggle broke out as Abdraim fought to disarm the attacker. Within seconds, airport security and police officers rushed in, piling on top of the man and pinning him to the ground.
The bomb threat was a bluff, authorities later confirmed. The attacker, identified as a 67-year-old resident of Almaty, was immediately taken into custody and now faces up to 12 years in prison.
After the ordeal, Abdraim remained humble about his heroic actions.
"I saw that he was going to stab her. I was afraid for her life," he said. "So I just reacted."
Despite not having trained in years, his instincts—shaped by years of discipline and fighting experience—kicked in. His selflessness has now been recognized at the highest level, with Kazakhstan’s President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev awarding him a state medal for courage.
This incident is a reminder that real courage isn’t about being fearless—it’s about taking action despite fear. Most people hope someone else will step in during a crisis. But heroes aren’t made in the moment—they are shaped by years of training, discipline, and a willingness to act when others freeze.
Abdraim did what needed to be done. The question is, would you?

Don’t miss this

Danny Danon absolutely destroys UN Relief official Tom Fletcher over his false claims — like the widely debunked “14,000 babies” narrative — and exposes how this kind of propaganda fuels deadly violence, like the murders of Sarah and Yaron.

Major revelation:
Danon accuses the UN of actively colluding with Hamas to block humanitarian aid — using mafia-style threats and even purging NGOs from the Shared Aid Database if they support the new aid delivery system.

Why China's Greatest Weapon May Be Its Willingness to Suffer

Let me ask you something: Have you ever been told you can’t buy something because you’ve hit your quota? That’s rationing—and here in America, it’s virtually unheard of. Sure, we had the great toilet paper panic of 2020, but that was more about hysteria than hardship. The truth is, we’ve grown used to convenience, comfort, and instant gratification.

That comfort could become a liability.

Because over in China, the people are enduring hardship—and not by accident. They’re preparing for war. And while Americans are busy customizing their next coffee order, China is building warships, digging bomb shelters, and getting ready to go toe-to-toe with the West. This isn’t fearmongering—it’s fact.


Hardship Builds Readiness

During World War II, Americans made real sacrifices. Ration books. Victory gardens. No new cars, refrigerators, or even typewriters. Every scrap of wool, steel, and fuel was repurposed for the war effort. Why? Because we knew what was at stake. It was a total war, and we fought it with total resolve.

That unity, that resolve, is exactly what gave us the edge. America didn’t just outfight our enemies—we outproduced them. Industry, grit, and sacrifice won the day.

Now ask yourself: Could we do that today?

The FAKE FAMINE in Gaza EXPOSED: Hamas Caught Hoarding Aid!

Where Are the Women and Children?

We’ve been watching the so-called "aid distribution" in Gaza unfold, and it raises a serious question: where are the women and children? Nearly every image shows military-age men grabbing supplies. The IDF’s new aid program—intended to bypass Hamas and deliver food directly to Gazan families—has been chaotic but surprisingly effective. It’s also revealing just how deep the corruption runs.

Yes, Hamas has tried to stop people from accessing the aid. But the people are getting bolder. They’re breaking through checkpoints, pushing past barriers, and taking what they need. Why? Because they know the American contractors running the aid stations aren’t going to shoot them. That’s led to the distribution of over 1.3 million meals per day.
