Shah of Iran Flees Amid Uprising
On August 16, 1953, the Shah of Iran, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, fled following a popular revolution supported by former Prime Minister Mohammad Mossadegh, who was dismissed on the same day. These events led to Mossadegh's arrest and conviction, initially sentenced to death, then reduced to imprisonment, and eventually placed under house arrest. He endured ongoing harassment until his death in 1967. The revolution and the nationalization of oil were major factors contributing to political upheaval and the overthrow of the Shah.
