Description
It's hard to miss the former United States embassy in the centre of Iran's capital Tehran, because it is daubed with striking anti-American murals. The building, today known as the "Den of Spies" museum, encapsulates the hostility of Iran-US relations marred by decades of mistrust and crises, including the current Israel-Hamas war. Inside, the building is a time capsule from the day it was seized by Iranian students on November 4, 1979. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
