Protests Outside Iranian Embassy in London
Hundreds protested outside the Iranian Embassy in London, leading to two arrests for aggravated trespass and assault. One protester replaced the Iranian flag with a pre-Islamic revolution flag, prompting the embassy to reaffirm its flag’s presence. The Iranian government summoned the British Ambassador in response, as protests in Iran continue against rising inflation and government repression. Meanwhile, a media blackout in Iran limits coverage of the unrest, with accusations against the US and Israel for inciting protests.
