In an act of brave defiance against the Iranian regime, video has surfaced of student protesters in Iran refusing to walk on the US and Israel flags on the ground.
BBC Presenter Ali Hamedani tweeted the video, adding:
At the height of the Iranian establishment anti Americanism, Tehran Beheshti university’s students refused walking over the US and Israel flag while participating in #IranProtests .
They all grew up to hate the two countries but seems like the revolutionary ideology is failed.
