Eldest of five sisters, Ahmad Massoud (born in 1989) captured the spirits of everyone at the funeral of his father, when he was only twelve years old. After growing up in Iran, he moved to England at the age of eighteen, where he attended the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst until 2012. He then studied international relations at King's College, one of the UK's largest universities, where he graduated in 2015. He returned to the country fifteen years after the assassination of his father, and was appointed general manager of The Massoud Foundation in November 2016. (Photo by Reza/Getty Images)
