Iran Press/Iran news: The rallies on Aban 13th are the National Day of Fighting Global Arrogance in Iran, during which Iranians gather to commemorate the anniversary of 13 Aban.
Nationwide rallies will be held in all provinces of Iran. In Tehran, the event will be held in front of the US Den of Spies (former US embassy).
On November 4, 1979, Iranian students took over the US Den of Spies (US embassy) in Tehran in protest of numerous US conspiracies against the Islamic Revolution.
Aban 13 in the Iranian calendar marks three significant events: "The anniversary of the takeover of the former US embassy in Tehran by Muslim students following the guidance of Imam Khomeini in 1979, The anniversary of the exile of Imam Khomeini, the late founder of the Islamic Republic, by the Shah in 1964 and Student Day, which commemorates the day in 1978 when several students participating in a protest rally against the former Shah were martyred."
