Sina Haghshenas was a 27-year-old florist from Gorgan who became a symbol of the Iranian protest movement known as the Lion and Sun Revolution. Known for his profession and his youth, he was part of the community in Gorgan before his life was cut short during the nationwide demonstrations. On January 8, 2026, Sina was killed after being shot directly in the chest by security forces of the Islamic Republic. His death added to the growing number of young lives lost during the revolutionary wave that swept across the country in early 2026. Following his death, footage from Sina’s memorial ceremony circulated widely, showing a mourning crowd singing in his honor. One of the most poignant images shared was that of his young brother holding Sina’s portrait and weeping, a scene that deeply moved the public and highlighted the profound grief experienced by his family and the people of Gorgan.

سینا حق‌شناس، گلفروش ۲۷ ساله اهل گرگان، یکی از جان‌باختگان راه آزادی در جریان اعتراضات سراسری موسوم به انقلاب شیر و خورشید بود. او که در حرفه گلفروشی مشغول به کار بود، در میان اطرافیان و شهروندان گرگانی به عنوان جوانی جویای تغییر شناخته می‌شد. در تاریخ ۱۸ دی ۱۴۰۴، سینا در جریان تجمعات اعتراضی هدف شلیک مستقیم مأموران امنیتی قرار گرفت. اصابت گلوله به قفسه سینه او منجر به جان‌باختنش شد و نام او را در زمره جاویدنامان این جنبش ملی ثبت کرد. پس از جان‌باختن وی، ویدیوهایی از مراسم بزرگداشت او منتشر شد که در آن حاضران با حزنی عمیق به هم‌خوانی و سوگواری می‌پرداختند. همچنین، تصویر برادر کوچک او در حالی که عکس سینا را در آغوش گرفته و به شدت اشک می‌ریخت، به نمادی از مظلومیت و اندوه خانواده‌های دادخواه تبدیل شد.
