In May 1977, a quiet morning in the Netherlands turned into a harrowing ordeal when South Moluccan activists hijacked a train near the village of De Punt and seized a school filled with 105 children and their teachers. Over the next 482 hours, the nation stood still, gripped by fear, suspense, and heartbreak. Fighter jets roared overhead, hostages faced life-or-death uncertainty, and Dutch marines executed a plan that would culminate in the bloodiest resolution since World War II. The result was a shocking mix of tragedy, controversy, and unanswered questions that would haunt a nation for decades.
