armed attack at a public market in 2022

The attack on Izeh market was an armed attack by Iranian security forces at a public market on November 16, 2022, during the Mahsa Amini protests in the city of Izeh, Khuzestan province, Iran. Seven people died during this incident, including a child, Kian Pirfalak; and two teenagers, Artin Rahmani, and Sepehr Maghsoodi (the latter was killed by a bullet in his head). Many of the people killed were of the Bakhtiari tribe, and were not known to be attached to a political position. The Iranian government declared this incident a terrorist act and claimed that it was carried out by ISIS, a militant Islamist group, but it was later denied.
