In February 1976, a group of Somali insurgents seized a school bus filled with 21 French children and their teacher in Djibouti City. The hijackers took the bus to a desolate area on the border between Somalia and French-controlled land. In response, the French Government dispatched a newly established elite squad to free the captives. The highly skilled team reached the scene within hours, only to find the Somali National Army positioned behind barbed wire at the border. Faced with limited options, the French unit devised a bold strategy: a coordinated sniper assault involving five marksmen to safely extract the children and their teacher. This gripping narrative is based on true events.
