Biography
Abolfazl Tavoosi was a 20-year-old killed on January 9, 2026, during the Lion and Sun revolutionary movement after being shot in the head by security forces while assisting a wounded individual. His body was withheld from his family for several days, and he was eventually buried in Nikabad, Isfahan, under intense security pressure. Despite threats of grave desecration and attempts to force a confession from his family, his funeral became a site of significant anti-regime protest.
