TEHRAN -- A large group of people including university students here on Monday staged a rally from Tehran University to the site of former U.S. embassy to commemorate the anniversaries of Aban 13 (November 4) events.

The demonstrators shouted slogans against the occupying regime of the Holy Qods and the international arrogant powers as they marched through Tehran's streets and toward the former embassy which is better known in Iran as the 'den of espionage'.

Today, Aban 13 (Nov. 4) marks three important events: anniversary of the takeover of the former U.S. embassy in Tehran by the Muslim students following the Imam's line (1979), anniversary of the exile of the late founder of the Islamic Republic Imam Khomeini by the ex-shah (1964), and the students day (marking the day in 1978 in which several students taking part in a protest rally against the former shah were martyred), IRNA reported.
