Nahayat Rahimi Dashti was a 37-year-old woman from Gorgan in Golestan Province (born circa 1367 / 1988–89). On Thursday, 8 January 2026 (18 Dey 1404), Iranian government forces shot her in the neck near Falakeh-e Kakh; she died from the wound. Hengaw listed her among ten women whose identities it confirmed from killings on 8–9 January across several cities, including Sona Yekta and Jamileh Shafiei.

At her fortieth-day ceremony, her mother spoke of a family that once carried Muharram standards through the streets—and of a new calendar of mourning: “From now on, our Tasu’a and Ashura? 18 Dey, 19 Dey! This road continues.”

Iranian Lives remembers Nahayat as a Gorgan daughter whose death turned her mother’s Ashura into the dates of Bloody Dey.
