When Taliban shot Malala in the head, this is what she did. Her story

Malala Yousafzai was shot in the head by Ehsanullah Ehsan, the former Pakistan Taliban spokesman in 2012. In a blog post, she has recounted her ordeal of the “Taliban’s damage” that was caused to her body.

Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafzai recounted her ordeal of the “Taliban’s damage” that was caused to her body in a telling blog post published on Podium on August 24. The 24-year-old was shot in the head by Ehsanullah Ehsan, the former Pakistan Taliban spokesman, in 2012 for her campaign to educate girls. “Two weeks ago, while US troops withdrew from Afghanistan and the Taliban gained control, I lay in a hospital bed in Boston, undergoing my sixth surgery, as doctors continued to repair the Taliban’s damage to my body,” Malala said in her blog, which has been published weeks after the return of the Taliban in Afghanistan.
