Hailed as a hero after neutralizing a shooter in the anti-Semitic attack in Bondi, Sydney, Ahmed al Ahmed delivered a poignant testimony on CBS News. Despite the magnitude of his gesture, the man remains consumed by the pain of the lives lost. “ I know I saved many, but I still feel sorry for those who perished “, he confides. Asked about the possible presence of a second shooter on the bridge, he replied bluntly: “ No, I didn’t worry about anything. My only goal was to take his gun and stop him from killing a human being, to stop him from killing innocent people. » Aware of the impact of his intervention, Ahmed al Ahmed adds with humility: “ I know I saved a lot of people’s lives, honestly, children, women and men. I know I saved many, but I still feel sorry for those who were lost. » A testimony which reminds us, in the heart of horror, of the strength of ordinary courage in the face of hatred.
