The martyr Omar Karim Fattah was born in 1947 in the village of Hassan Awa, which belongs to the Halabja Governorate. He was a villager and worked in agriculture. He completed the primary stage.
He joined the Peshmerga ranks in 1963 in Faraj Haji Mahmoud's company, which belonged to the Khabat Regiment of the Kurdistan Democratic Party, through Abdullah Baghdadi's main cell affiliated with the Nuruli organization.
In 1963, Omar Karim Fattah returned with the martyr Hama Gulpi and a number of his Peshmerga comrades to the village of Hassan Awa to spend a period of rest and to secure their needs. However, they were soon discovered, and a large force of the Iraqi regime besieged the village. After clashes between the two sides, Hama Gulpi and some of his comrades managed to escape, but Omar Karim Fattah and three of his comrades, namely Karim Fattah Qadir, Haji Karim, and Saleh Muhammad Ali, were arrested and shot at the entrance of the village by soldiers of the Iraqi regime and were martyred immediately.
