Narrative

Mahnaz Masoumi was a 64-year-old mother from the city of Malayer. She lost her life on January 9, 2023, during the nationwide protest movement in Iran. Witness reports indicate that Mahnaz was acting out of compassion, attempting to provide assistance to those wounded during the protests. While she was tending to the injured, she was targeted by security forces and shot at close range. For a significant period following her death, her case remained unreported in the media. Her story eventually emerged, highlighting her courage and the risks taken by ordinary citizens to support one another during the unrest.

مهناز معصومی، مادر ۶۴ ساله اهل ملایر، در تاریخ ۱۹ دی ۱۴۰۱ در جریان خیزش مردمی جان خود را از دست داد. او یکی از چهره‌هایی بود که نامش تا مدت‌ها در رسانه‌ها منتشر نشده بود. بر اساس گزارش‌ها، مهناز زمانی که برای یاری رساندن به معترضان زخمی پیش رفته بود، از فاصله نزدیک هدف شلیک نیروهای امنیتی قرار گرفت و کشته شد. فداکاری او در لحظات پایانی عمرش نشان‌دهنده شجاعت مدنی در حمایت از دیگران بود. داستان زندگی و نحوه جان باختن او یادآور بسیاری از قربانیانی است که در ابتدا گمنام ماندند و بعدها روایت رشادت‌هایشان در یاری رساندن به هم‌وطنان خود به گوش همگان رسید.
