Around 150 people gathered at London's Iran Embassy to mark the 30th anniversary of the American Embassy occupation in Tehran, Iran. On 4th November 1979, a faction of Islamic Republic (the pro-Khomeini students) took its emlployees hostage for 400 days. This day marks the consodolation of the Islamic regime in Iran and Islamist reaction; thus black day for people.
People with green flags showed their solidarity with the Green Movement in Iran.

Thanks, I read there were tens of thousands of protesters in Teheran on that day
