Ali Araghi was a 21-year-old young man from Tabriz who lost his life during the "Woman, Life, Freedom" protests. On November 16, 2022, in the Koye Valiasr neighborhood of Tabriz, he was targeted by security forces and fatally assaulted. Reports indicate that he was subjected to extreme violence, involving gunfire as well as strikes from chains, batons, and knives. Following his death, Iranian security agencies reportedly harassed his family to suppress the truth of his killing. Authorities pressured his relatives to claim that his death was the result of an accidental fall from a height, a tactic often used to evade responsibility for the deaths of protesters. Despite this pressure, Ali is remembered by his community as a "Javidnam" (immortal name) who stood for change. His grave in Tabriz has since become a site of remembrance. During traditional holidays like Nowruz, his resting place is visited and decorated with flowers, wheat grains, and portraits, serving as a solemn reminder of the young life lost during the movement.

علی عراقی، جوان ۲۱ ساله ساکن تبریز، یکی از جان‌باختگان خیزش انقلابی «زن، زندگی، آزادی» بود. او در شامگاه ۲۵ آبان ۱۴۰۱ در محله کوی ولیعصر تبریز مورد هجوم وحشیانه نیروهای امنیتی قرار گرفت. بر اساس شواهد، مأموران حکومتی با شلیک گلوله و استفاده از زنجیر، باتون و چاقو به او حمله کردند که منجر به جان‌باختن او شد. پس از این واقعه، نهادهای امنیتی با آزار و اذیت خانواده علی، تلاش کردند آن‌ها را تحت فشار قرار دهند تا علت مرگ فرزندشان را به دروغ «سقوط از ارتفاع» اعلام کنند. این فشارها بخشی از تلاش‌های حکومتی برای پنهان کردن نقش نیروهای سرکوبگر در کشته شدن معترضان بود. با این حال، حقیقت جان‌باختن او به عنوان یکی از جان‌سپاران راه آزادی در خاطره‌ها باقی ماند. مزار علی عراقی در تبریز همواره محل حضور کسانی است که یاد او را گرامی می‌دارند. در ایام نوروز، سوگواران و همراهان با تزئین مزار او با گل و تصاویرش، بر تداوم یاد و نام این جوان ۲۱ ساله تأکید می‌کنند.
