41st Anniversary of the U.S. Embassy Takeover in Tehran
Forty-one years ago, Ayatollah Khomeini’s followers broke into the U.S. Embassy in Tehran and took more than 50 U.S. diplomats hostage.
Nov 8, Washington D.C, Michael R. Pompeo, Secretary of State: For the next 444 days, the Iranian regime tormented these brave Americans and their families who did not know if they would ever see their loved ones again. The survivors of the Iran hostage crisis embody the courage of our diplomatic corps. The U.S. honour the sacrifice made by these patriots and those who worked tirelessly to free them.
