An Iranian carries a placard with posters depicting US President Donald Trump during a rally in front of the former US embassy to mark the anniversary of the 1979 Iran hostage crisis, in Tehran on November 4, 2026. In 1979, fifty-two embassy staff were held hostage for 444 days by Iranian students, who demanded that Washington hand over Iran's recently toppled shah, who was being treated in the United States for cancer.
