آیدا حیدری، دانشجوی ۲۳ ساله پزشکی دانشگاه تهران، در تاریخ ۱۸ دی ۱۴۰۴ در صادقیه تهران با شلیک مستقیم نیروهای امنیتی در جریان اعتراضات کشته شد. زندگی او که وقف تحصیل در رشته پزشکی بود، به این ترتیب با خشونت دولتی به پایان رسید و مرگ او به نمادی دردناک از سرکوب گسترده‌تر تبدیل شد. پس از کشته شدن آیدا، مادرش سوگ عمیق خود را علناً ابراز کرد. او شب‌ها از بالکن خانه به گریه و مویه می‌پرداخت و با مرور کتاب‌های پزشکی و دیگر وسایل شخصی دخترش، یاد و خاطره آرزوهای ناتمام آیدا را گرامی می‌داشت. مراسم یادبود و چهلم آیدا حیدری برگزار شد تا یاد او زنده بماند. تصاویری از مزار گلباران شده او و پوسترهای اطلاع‌رسانی مراسم ترحیم در میان سوگواران و عدالت‌خواهان منتشر گردید.
