Iranian students storm British compound
« on: December 30, 2008, 05:26:06 PM »
Iranian students, incensed over British support for the Israeli military attack on the Gaza Strip, have broken into a British embassy compound in Tehran.
“A large number of people and students entered the Gholhak garden, which is occupied by the British embassy, to protest against the British government's support for the Israeli attacks on Gaza,” IRNA reported.

“They lowered the British flag and hoisted the Palestinian flag in the garden,” the report said.

Police arrived at the scene shortly afterwards to control the protesters.

A later IRNA report said the people had begun to leave the garden and were heading toward the Egyptian Interests Section in Tehran to protest over the Egyptian government's support for the siege of Gaza.
