On 4 November 1979, Iranian students seized the U.S. Embassy in Tehran, holding over 50 American diplomats and guards hostage for 444 days. This action followed the U.S. decision to allow Iran's ousted Shah to receive medical treatment in America.

Recently, on 2 November, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei warned of a severe response to the U.S. and Israel following Israel's recent strike on Iran
