Iranians commemorating Aban 13 across Iran

TEHRAN (Defapress) - Nationwide demonstrations are taking place in Tehran and various cities across Iran on Sunday to commemorate Student Day, which marks the anniversary of the seizure of the former US Embassy in Iran.

The rallies on Aban 13th (Nov. 4) are recognized as the National Day of Fighting Global Arrogance in Iran, during which citizens gather to observe the anniversary of 13 Aban.

Demonstrations are occurring in all provinces of Iran. In Tehran, the gathering will take place in front of the US Den of Spies (the former US embassy), where Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi is scheduled to address the attendees.

On November 4, 1979, Iranian students occupied the US Den of Spies (US embassy) in Tehran as a response to various US plots against the Islamic Revolution.
