Abolfazl Paydar was a 17-year-old youth from Sabzevar. His life was tragically cut short when he was shot by regime forces on January 8, 2026 in Sabzevar. He was hit by pellets from a cartridge casing fired to the ground, which scattered and struck him directly.
Following the shooting, Abolfazl fell into a coma and died one day later, on January 10, 2026 (20 Dey). He is remembered as a "Child of Iran" who "sacrificed his life for the homeland."
His death is documented as part of the "IranMassacre" and was described by some as being "MURDERED IN COLD BLOOD BY KHAMENEI." His name, Abolfazl Paydar, also appears on the Islamic Republic government's published list of victims, with two potential entries indicating different father's names and national ID numbers (one with father Mohammad Jafar and national ID ending in 153318, and another with father Reza and national ID ending in 344522).
