Their story

Sahba Rashtian was 23 and from Isfahan, born in 1382 (2003–04). She had a degree in animation from the Isfahan University of Art and worked as an assistant referee in women's football. She was also a painter, a runner and a fitness athlete. On 9 January 2026 (19 Dey 1404), during peaceful protests in Isfahan, she was hit in the side by live ammunition fired by the regime's security forces near her home on Bozorgmehr Street. She was taken to hospital but died of her wounds. She was buried on 15 January (25 Dey). On her birthday months later, her mother stood by her memory and said: "May the hearts of those who burned our hearts burn."
