Hundreds of thousands of Iranians have rallied across Iran today carrying effigies of US President Donald Trump and chanting ‘Death to America’.
The huge crowds responded to a call from Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who called on citizens to demonstrate that Iran is not frightened of American ‘threats’.
Trump declared that he has put the Islamic Republic ‘on notice’ and Iran is one of seven countries on the administration’s ‘travel ban’ list, which is being challenged in US courts.
Demonstrators in Tehran marched towards the Azadi ( Freedom) Square to commemorate the anniversary of Iran’s 1979 Islamic Revolution that toppled the US-backed shah.
A young Iranian man told state TV: ‘America and Trump cannot do a damn thing. We are ready to sacrifice our lives for our leader Khamenei.’
