Biography
Hananeh Kia Kajoori was a 23-year-old woman from Nowshahr who became widely known as the 'Bride of Iran.' She was shot and killed by security forces on September 21, 2022, while returning home from a dental appointment during the Woman, Life, Freedom protests. Hananeh was engaged to be married just weeks after her death, and her tragic story, including her reported final plea for life to hospital staff, made her a powerful symbol of the movement.
