On the Western Front of World War I, in October 1917, the doomed female spy Mata Hari was gunned down in the Paris suburb of Bois de Vincennes, facing a French firing squad.

   In October 1917, the doomed female spy Mata Hari was gunned down in the Paris suburb of Bois de Vincennes, facing a French firing squad. The symbol of the charming female spy who forever captivated men, she was a double agent and a clumsy Dutch spy who lost her life.

    From the end of 1914, the British intelligence network on the Western Front of World War I was in disarray, and the spy network was rebuilt with Holland as a base. The Dutch slipped across the border into German-occupied Belgium unnoticed. The German Wehrmacht Intelligence Service (ND) set up its main bureau of female spymasters in Antwerp, Belgium.

 　In October 1917, Mata Hari, a World War I Dutchwoman, was executed by firing squad in France. After months of trial, prosecutors won the trust and favor of the French military and politicians, who were willing to sell secrets to the enemy, Germany, for Mata Hari, a shameful beauty with no moral compass. The French eliminated Mari Hari, one of their most dangerous and capable spies.

    She was actually a Dutch woman named Heertroyda Zele, who had spent six years with her estranged husband on the island of Java in present-day Indonesia, earning the stage name Mata Hari, and who moved to Paris in 1905 with her daughter, where she charmed with her sensual dancing and her service to men with discernment.

    In her unhappy and dirty life, she loved her own daughter, her young Russian mistress, and her naturalized homeland, France. A Dutchman from a neutral country, the French General Staff could not trust her, and in early 1916 she got herself hired by the Cologne director of the ND. He sent her to Dusseldorf ND. She became Agent H21 and was sent to Antwerp ND for intensive training. During World War I she was sent to Madrid, the capital of Spain.

　Inexperienced and inexperienced, she set foot in Spain, a hotbed of intrigue. She conquered the heart of a German military officer in Madrid, but he saw right through her gimmicks from the start. He sent an open letter to Berlin. It passed through the hands of the French censor and came to the attention of the security police. In Paris, she got off the train from Madrid and was arrested by the French secret police. As a double agent, her contributions were ignored by the French, and on July 24, 1917, she was tried and sentenced to death for espionage.
