Leader to receive Iranian students on occasion of Student Day
The leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei will receive a large number of students on the occasion of Student's Day and National Day of Fighting against Global Arrogance (November 4th).
On the occasion of the Student Day and the National Day of the Fight against Global Arrogance in Iran, which falls on the 13th day of the Iranian calendar month of Aban, Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei would receive a large number of students on Sunday.
On November 4, 1979, less than a year after the victory of the Islamic Revolution that toppled a US-backed monarchy, Iranian university students who called themselves "students following the line of (the late) Imam (Khomeini)" seized the US embassy in Tehran, which had become a center of espionage and planning to overthrow the newly established Islamic system in Iran.
The students who seized the embassy later published documents proving that the compound was indeed engaged in plans and measures to overthrow the Islamic Republic.
