Андрей Тихомиров, The poet is a hero

The chronicle of the heroism of the Soviet people includes the immortal feat of the Tatar Soviet poet Musa Jalil, a native of the village of Mustafino in the Sharlyk district of the Orenburg (Chkalov) region, who was seriously wounded and captured by the Nazis. Despite the atrocities of the fascists, he managed to organize an underground group. Betrayed by a traitor and sentenced to death, he remained faithful to the party, the Soviet people, and his beloved Homeland until his last breath.
