Ahmad Shah Massoud (1953–2001) was an Afghan military leader known for his pivotal role in driving the Soviet army out of Afghanistan, earning him the nickname 'Lion of Panjshir.' As an ethnic Tajik, he was respected among various factions in Afghanistan. In the early 1990s, he became Minister of Defense. Following the fall of the Rabbani government and the rise of the Taliban, he led the Northern Alliance, a coalition of opposition groups, during a prolonged civil war.
