Video: Protesters Set Fire to Iran's Islamic Revolution Leader Museum

A group of protesters has set fire to the museum of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, the leader of the Islamic Revolution. Western media have described the act as highly symbolic. It is unclear how much damage was done to the building located south of Tehran.

Protests have surged in the Islamic Republic of Iran recently, sparked by the controversial incident involving the death of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini while in custody. In some cities, demonstrations have escalated into clashes, and law enforcement has also used firearms.
