Egyptian ouster leader Hosni Mubarak (left) and President Anver Sadat of the time are watching the military parade.

This photo, taken on 6 October 1981, was assassinated by Anwar Sadat after three seconds and was killed at the scene.

In 1981, during a ceremony celebrating the independence of Egypt, Anwar Sadat was armed and killed. During the official parade, Sedat, senior commanders and other elite commanders were attacked by hand bombs by Khalid al-Islâmbûlî, who was in the military convoy, and then automatic weapons were brought to the platform. During this attack, 72 bullets hit Enver Sedat. Islamic captain Khalid al-Islamabulli, who killed Sadat, was executed in 1982. Enver Sedat's grave is in Cairo, under the Unknown Soldier monument, just opposite the ceremonial ground where he was killed.
