Mohammadreza Javedan, a 79-year-old resident of Tehran, was killed in recent airstrikes after a bomb struck a residential area. The attack reportedly hit a civilian neighborhood, resulting in the death of the elderly civilian.
According to available information, Javedan had previously taken part in the January 2026 protests. Despite his age, he joined demonstrations using a walker and was reportedly beaten with batons by Islamic Republic security forces during the crackdown.
His death, after having already been injured during the suppression of protests, underscores the vulnerability of civilians who now face risks from both internal repression and ongoing military strikes.
More than a month into the war, civilian casualties have not only continued but remain ongoing. This sustained pattern points to a serious failure to protect civilian lives and raises concerns about violations of international obligations during the conduct of hostilities.
