In Moscow, in the Crocus City Hall building, a heroic event occurred when a 17-year-old waiter from Tajikistan, Bunavshokh Erkinov, was the only one left to help the wounded man during the terrorist attack, when the rest of the staff left the scene.

Erkinov, who recently started working at the Aquarium Hotel, located in the Crocus City complex, faced this test on only his third shift at work. After evening fell, Vladimir entered the restaurant, asked for water and fell to the floor, not realizing that he was injured. The restaurant staff quickly provided first aid, bandaging his wound with a towel, after which, due to the evacuation command, all employees left the premises. However, the young waiter, despite the general panic, decided to stay with the victim.

Bunavshokh, guided by a sense of solidarity and humanity, stayed with Vladimir, supporting him and providing the necessary assistance until the rescuers arrived. Ultimately, when hotel staff and a police officer returned to the restaurant, they worked together to carry the wounded man to an ambulance, where he was taken into care by medical personnel.
