Former US Embassy Turned Museum - Tehran
A picture captured the reenactment of a hostage crisis scene within the building that once housed the U.S. embassy in Tehran, now known as the 'Den of Spies' museum, on October 25, 2023. This historical event preceded the 44th anniversary of the seizure of the U.S. embassy in Tehran on November 4, during which Islamist students captured and held 52 U.S. diplomats hostage for 444 days. The crisis not only resulted in a severance of diplomatic relations but also paved the way for decades of mutual hostility. Photo by Hossein Beris/Middle East Images/ABACAPRESS.COM
