Sara Saeedi, a 39-year-old mother of two daughters from Mashhad, was killed on January 9, 2026 (19 Dey 1404). She died during protests in the Emamat neighborhood of Mashhad, after being shot directly in the head and face by live ammunition fired by security forces. Following her death, Iranian authorities attempted to exploit her image for propaganda purposes, due to her veiled appearance. However, her family resisted this narrative, ensuring the truth of her killing was not suppressed. Her body was returned to them after three days, reportedly after payment and a commitment not to hold public ceremonies. Authorities further obscured the circumstances of her death by falsely recording the cause on her death certificate as "collision with agricultural machinery." Sara Saeedi is honored as a victim of the Lion and Sun Revolution.
