Tehran Marks 1979 Seizure
Thousands of Iranians took part in a march outside the former US embassy in Tehran to mark its seizure in 1979, chanting anti-Washington slogans and condemning US regional policies amid rising tensions. Some participants welcomed the setback suffered by Donald Trump’s party in the midterm elections, but questioned whether it would bring any fundamental change in US policy toward Iran. They also viewed the Strait of Hormuz and energy prices as tools of pressure. The anniversary dates back to a 444-day hostage crisis that ended with Tehran and Washington severing diplomatic relations in 1980.
