General Strike – The October 2022 three-day strike, which took place between October 22 and 24, marked a significant, peaceful display of protest. It stood as a united expression of solidarity with the anti-government demonstrations, which were sparked by the police killing of Mahsa Jina Amini. Iranian shopkeepers, factory workers, truck drivers, teachers, students, and people belonging to various other sectors of society participated in this strike, extending its reach to numerous cities and towns.
Yalda 2– Majidreza Rahnavard, a 23-year-old Iranian citizen, was publicly hanged on December 12, 2022, in Mashhad, in the Razavi Khorasan Province of Iran. He became the first person to face a public execution due to his involvement in the Woman, Life, Freedom protests. Rahnavard was charged with, convicted of, and sentenced to death for committing “Moharebeh”, meaning “waging war against God.”
Yalda 3 – Yalda Aghafazli, a 19-year-old Iranian protester, wrote anti-establishment slogans on a wall during the nationwide protests that occurred following the police killing of Mahsa Jina Amini. She was held for 13 days, and five days after her release, she was found dead in her bed. The judiciary claimed it was a drug overdose, but her family disputes it. The cause of death in the post-mortem report was listed as 'unknown.' Aghafazli had alleged severe beatings in police custody before her death, as she mentioned in an audio message to a friend following her release. In her message, she said, "I'd never been beaten this much in the 19 years of my life, but to the last minute I did not express remorse and I did not cry."
