Gathering regime’s licks at the night conference in Tehran

Martyrs, Memory, and Revolutionary Symbolism

Organizers stated that the campaign and gathering were held in memory of:

• The “martyred leader”
• Student martyrs of Mina
• Martyred commanders
• Individuals associated with national sacrifice

Martyrdom occupies a central place in the political and religious identity of the Islamic Republic.

Public references to martyrs are common in state ceremonies, religious events, educational programs, and political speeches.

By connecting the campaign to martyrdom narratives, organizers sought to strengthen emotional and ideological resonance.

This symbolism also reflected broader themes within Iranian revolutionary culture, where sacrifice for religion and nation is portrayed as a source of national authority and moral legitimacy.
