ISLAMABAD: Qatari Princess Sheikha Asma Al Thani has become the first Qatari woman to successfully summit Pakistan’s treacherous and 8,126-meter-high Nanga Parbat.

Despite harsh weather, snowstorms and difficult terrain, Sheikha Asma raised her national flag on the summit, known as the “Killer Mountain.” Her remarkable feat is not only a milestone in the world of mountaineering but also a shining symbol of global efforts to empower women.

The achievement marks the ninth successful ascent in her mission to conquer all 14 of the world’s highest peaks, putting her among the top ranks of international mountaineers.

Sheikha Asma’s achievement is a proud moment for Qatar and an inspiring example for women around the world.
