Melina, 3-year-old girl, died in Kermanshah

In the Iranian city of Kermanshah, armed terrorists killed a three-year-old girl named Melina, who was with her father. The father, who had stopped at a pharmacy to buy cough syrup, suddenly encountered a crowd and shots were fired. A bullet struck the child, who was in her father's arms, in the chest.

According to the father: "I went to buy cough syrup... I saw a crowd, parked in an alley... I had just stepped out — and suddenly a bullet hit her from behind... She was in my arms... my hands covered in blood... my three-year-old girl..."

Local authorities believe this was not a "collateral effect" of protests, but a deliberate act of terrorism against civilians and children.
