Sarah Aaronsohn was born and died in Zichron Yaakov , Israel , which at the time was a province of the Turkish - ruled Ottoman Empire . She lived briefly in Istanbul until 1915 , when she returned home to Zichron Yaakov in December to escape an unhappy marriage . Decision to spy . On her way from Istanbul to Haifa , Aaronson personally witnessed the Armenian Genocide . In her testimony , she describes seeing hundreds of bodies of men , women and babies , sickened Armenians being loaded onto trains and a massacre of up to 5 , 000 Armenians by bounding them to a pyramid of thorns and setting it alight . Since her trip to Haifa , any allusions to Armenians got her into a fit of hysteria . According to Chaim Herzog , Aaronsohn decided to assist British forces after she witnessed the Armenian genocide by the Ottoman s in Anatolia . Spy ring . Aaronsohn , her brothers and sister Aaron , Alex , and Rebecca Feinberg - Aaronohn also their friend Absalom Feinberg formed and led Nili , the spy organization . Aaronsohn oversaw operations of the spy - ring and passed information to British agents offshore . When Aaron Aaronsohn was away , she headed the spy operations in Palestine . Sometimes she travelled widely through Ottoman territory collecting information useful to the British , and brought it directly to them in Egypt . In 1917 , Alex urged her to remain in British - controlled Egypt , expecting hostilities by Ottoman authorities . She nevertheless returned to Zichron Yaakov to continue Nili activities . Discovery and death . In September 1917 , the Ottoman s caught her carrier pigeon with a message to the British and decrypted the Nili code . In October , the Ottoman s surrounded Zichron Yaakov and arrested numerous people , including Aaronsohn . After four days of torture , she managed to shoot and kill herself with a pistol concealed under a tile in the bathroom to avoid further torture and to protect her colleagues . In her last letter , she expressed her hope that her activities in Nili would bring nearer the realization of a Jewish national home for the Jews in Eretz Israel . Because of the Jewish views on suicide , Aaronsohn was forbidden from being traditionally buried in a Jewish cemetery . However , refusing a Jewish burial for a Jewish war hero was naturally unpopular . As a compromise , a small fence was placed around her grave in the cemetery ( symbolically removing her grave from the surrounding hallowed ground ) . Aaronsohn ' s mother wished to be buried beside her daughter ; upon her death , the fenced in section was expanded to accommodate them both .

Galashki ambush Galashki ambush took place of May 11 , 2000 , when the separatist militants from the group of Shamil Basayev , led by a Galashki native Ruslan Khuchbarov , attacked and destroyed a convoy of the Russian Interior Ministry paramilitary forces in the Republic of Ingushetia . The incident was the first major act of violence linked to the Second Chechen War in Ingushetia and the first major rebel raid outside the neighbouring Chechnya since war began in 1999 . According to the Russian sources , in the convoy there were 22 Internal Troops servicemen from Altai Krai , returning aboard two military trucks to Vladikavkaz , having completed a tour of duty in Ingushetia . At about 12 am , at a highway near the village of Galashki , a group of rebels located in the woods overlooking the road suddenly opened fire on them with grenade launchers and machine guns ( some sources also mention mortar and sniper fire ) , disabling the first truck and then quickly obliterating the whole convoy . Following their attack , the rebels managed to escape the pursuit and vanished into the forest near the village of Bamut in Chechnya . According to the Chechen separatist website Kavkaz Center , three heavy trucks and two BTR armored vehicles were destroyed , while " not less than 40 " Russian soldiers were killed by an unspecified unit of fighters from the Southwestern Front of the Chechen Armed Forces and a group of Caucasian volunteers .
Olin / Winchester Salvo Rifle The Olin / Winchester Salvo Rifle is an experimental double - barreled 5 . 56mm automatic rifle created for the U . S . Army ' s Project SALVO in the 1950s . Developed in hopes of increasing the hit probability of soldiers in combat , the Salvo Rifle was designed by Stefan K . Janson , who had previously created the Enfield EM2 rifle for the British Army . The Salvo Rifle used a single US - made T48 / FN FAL receiver with a single bolt , hammer and gas system . Two barrels were fitted to the receiver , and the rifle used two magazines . The Salvo rifle could be fired from only one barrel by inserting a single magazine , or from both barrels simultaneously by inserting both magazines . The use of the FAL action is curious given that only a few years earlier , Janson ' s EM2 design had lost out to a FAL variant , the L1A1 SLR , for British military adoption . The Salvo Rifle was chambered for the experimental 5 . 56mm T65 Duplex cartridge , based on a long - necked variant of the 7 . 62mm NATO cartridge case loaded with a pair of conventional projectiles . Two variants of the duplex cartridge existed : one fired two 35 grain projectiles at , while the other fired a pair of 41 grain bullets at . With its two barrels each firing a duplex cartridge , the Salvo Rifle would effectively launch four projectiles with every press of the trigger . However , this proved to be the Salvo Rifle ' s downfall as the recoil of firing two duplex cartridges at the same time exceeded that of the M1 Garand . An example of the Salvo Rifle is currently held in the collection of the Springfield Armory Museum .
