SAEDNEWS: In a heart‑wrenching video, Kian Ghasemi—the brother of wounded child martyr Rayan Ghasemi—stands as the lone survivor of his four‑member family following Israeli terror strikes on Iran.
According to Saed News, on Thursday, 19 Tir 1404 (10 July 2025), a deeply distressing video emerged showing Kian Ghasemi, the elder brother of Rayan Ghasemi—widely reported as Iran’s youngest martyr of the recent Israeli attacks. In the clip, Kian’s tear‑streaked face and stunned silence convey the immense personal cost of the cross‑border bombardments that have claimed dozens of civilian lives.
The footage, shared by Saed News’s political service, captures Kian as he surveys the ruins of his family home. He is the only surviving member of his immediate family, which included his parents and younger sister. Scenes of the devastated dwelling and scattered belongings underscore the suddenness and severity of the strikes. As emergency responders arrive in the background, Kian’s solitary figure epitomizes the human toll behind the headlines.
Iranian officials have denounced the attacks as “terrorist aggression” by Israel, targeting civilian populations and critical infrastructure. Rayan Ghasemi, a six‑year‑old schoolboy, was killed instantly when a projectile struck his neighborhood. His injuries and subsequent death were widely mourned across social and traditional media, igniting fresh calls for international condemnation of the strikes.
Human‑rights organizations and United Nations observers have repeatedly warned against the targeting of non‑combatants in the ongoing Israel‑Iran hostilities. The video of Kian adds a poignant new chapter to their concerns, highlighting the trauma inflicted on children and families caught in the crossfire.
As Iran mourns its youngest martyr and rallies around Kian’s survival, the footage serves as a stark reminder of the conflict’s civilian casualties. It also raises pressing questions about accountability, the protection of innocent lives, and the urgent need for de‑escalation.
