Noor Inayat Khan, born in Moscow to a Sufi pacifist family, became an Allied spy during WWII. Despite her pacifist beliefs, she joined the British SOE to fight against Nazi occupation. Noor was a skilled radio operator and worked in France, supporting the resistance. Her charm and intelligence helped her evade capture for months. Betrayed by a jealous colleague, she was captured, tortured, and executed, but never revealed any secrets. Noor's bravery and sacrifice have been honored posthumously.
