With due respects to the departed souls, I would say it is not a question of martyrs or hero's. Everyone works for a living, some work for govt some for private sector. It is just a work hazard. If I die by accident on the way to work what happens? Do i become a martyr? Its a danger I am aware of. Didnt the govt or the dead were not aware of the dangers of wroking in Kabul?
I would put myself to care for living and respect the dead. No point in crying over the dead and forsaking the living which is very much the indian way thinking. THe living go to dogs but the dead who can bring no benefit to themselves nor to the living are fed, clothed, celebrated, millions are spent the dead, which is useless. Take care of the living poor and hungry.
