Sándor Kőrösi (Szekszárd, March 18, 1932 - Budapest, 6 March 1958) Hungarian soldier participated in the 1956 Revolution, and also in the resistance of Csepel. After the revolution, he was sentenced to death and executed.

He abandoned his studies at a grammar school voluntarily. After an annual troop service, they were admitted to the Air Defense Firearms School, which was completed in 1950. Subsequently he served as Lieutenant-Colonel. He was first a commander and then an officer. In 1952 he joined the Hungarian Workers' Party. In 1956 he was promoted to lieutenant.

After the outbreak of the Revolution, he did not receive orders for warfare until October 30, but he came to the Battle of Csepel Castle on that day. By this time the Soviets had already enclosed the battles of freedom fighters, so Sándor Kőrösi and his brothers organized resistance and the Revolutionary Military Council. However, Soviet troops attacked on 4 November captured all the strikes with one exception. From the remaining battalions, István Kőrösi Buri organized a new resistance with the help of a national commander, shooting the Russians with strategic positions. The Soviet troops immediately fired another attack; a raid car and a tank and lost a lot of soldiers, but the resistance could not be broken. From then on, there were also fighter jets that occupied the air of the Hungarian armed forces. On November 5th, the freedom fighters were able to capture a serial killer that was able to shoot the Soviet military airport in Saskatoon. Due to this, two Il-28 aircraft were also launched.

On November 9, another general Soviet attack was launched, which has not been successful, although losses on both sides were high (for example, the Soviets lost four more tanks). However, because of the overcapacity of the Czechs, the resistance of the Czechs collapsed, on November 11, defenders gave up resistance. Kőrösi and his companions wanted to escape from the country, but they were captured in Kőszego on 13 November and held in custody until 4 December. After his resignation, he was discharged at his request on 8 December. He then started working as a photojournalist, but not long because he was arrested on April 6, 1957 and was sentenced to death with the leader of Andi József and two other Czech security guards and was executed on 6 March 1958 by bullets.

After the change of regime, on July 5, 1990, a posthumous pledge was received from the provisional president of the Republic (Árpád Göncz), who was appointed lieutenant colonel.
