The Shah mercenary regime attack to Imam Reza Hospital in Mashhad is one of the important historical events in those days.
According to Mehr News Agency, the challenge to reach the victory of Islamic Revolution in Iran is more expansive and valued because of the blood of compatriots.
One of these incomparable events in that period is about the day when there was taking in a sanctuary of clergies and doctors in the Imam Reza Hospital in Mashhad.
On that day, the Shahs military attacked the hospital and opened fire on doctors, nurses, patients and other people. It is 30 years now, but there are some eye-witnesses who are alive and can describe their seen. There are also the documents bullet-wholes on the walls and gates around the hospital environment which remind that horrified day when the doctors, nurses and people stood and resisted against the Shahs full armed force.
Seyyed Hassan Fattahi Masum is one of the eye-witness who states about this event. He tries to collect more documents in his leisure time. He is a professor at Mashhad Medical Science University. He believes that this event is a manifestation of ordinary and educated people justifies and rightful requirements for Islam and it is a part of challenging with tyrannized regime as well.
Talking about the remembrance of the events of Iranian Revolution is necessary for our society today, said Fattahi.
If we would not write and repeat the days when have been passed on Iran Revolution, next generation, university students and young people could not know about the facts of events and they would not be able to analyze them. In addition, they cannot realize who and how people could stand, resist and get the victory without any guns against the full armed force which was supported by world arrogance, he continued.
Then he explains more about this event in details.
Attack on the sanctuary was continued about 13 days and nights while in the last day, the soldiers stopped the martial law and all of them left the streets around the hospital with their tanks, he said.

I remember that day when more than 100 men and women were killed and died as martyrs, therefore, the bloods of people was caused the victory of the Revolution which had been continued up to now, he stated in the end of his talking.
