Iranian students have attacked the UK embassy in Tehran in protest of what they call Britain's "forever" hostile approach towards the Iranian nation and Londons latest move with sanctions against the country's banking system and energy sector in coordination with the US over Tehran's peaceful nuclear program.
Following the approval of a bill aimed at downgrading ties with the UK by the Iran's Majlis parliament, in response to Britain's hostilities , students from different universities entered the compound of the British embassy in Tehran and demanded the government to hasten the implications of the bill which includes that to UK ambassador in Tehran to leave the country within two weeks .
Police has said that they are protecting the embassy building and the documents inside, and the large crowds gathered outside the embassy compound is being dispersed.
In northern Tehran, police entered a second British diplomatic compound to bring the situation under control where protesters had gathered at mass and chanting against the UK government .
