Martyr Omar Karim Fattah was born in 1947 in Hasan Awa village, Halabja province. He was a villager and farmer and studied through primary school.
In 1963, through the main cell of Abdullah Baghdad belonging to the Nawroz Organization, he became a Peshmerga in the Faraj Haji Mahmoud branch, which belonged to the Khabat Battalion of the Kurdistan Democratic Party.
In 1963, Omar Karim Fattah, martyr Hama Gulpi, and several comrades returned to Hasan Awa village for a short rest and to obtain supplies. They were discovered, and a large force of the Iraqi regime of that time surrounded the village. After the confrontation, Hama Gulpi and several comrades escaped, while Omar Karim Fattah and three comrades—Karim Fattah Qadir, Haji Karim, and Salih Muhammad Ali—were captured, shot at the village entrance, and martyred.
