Tens of thousands of Iranians stage rallies in Tehran and other cities to mark the 44th anniversary of the Islamic revolution, after months of anti-government protests
Ayatollah Khomeini established the Islamic Republic of Iran in 1979 and led the country until his death in 1989.
Sejjil ballistic missiles and Shahed 136 drones were on display around the square where President Ebrahim Raisi is expected to address the crowds later. State television said the celebrations were held in 1,400 cities and towns across the country, airing footage of large rallies in Isfahan, Mashhad, Shiraz, and Tabriz.
The celebrations mark the day that the shah's government fell 10 days after Shia cleric Khomeini returned from exile and led the uprising in February 1979.
