Iranian protesters forced their way into the British embassy two days after the Iranian parliament voted to expel the British ambassador to Iran in response to economic sanctions imposed by Britain.
Thousands more protesters gathered outside. The protests began with groups of students chanting “Death to England” outside the embassy. They later stormed the building and set the British flag on fire, according to Iran’s semi-official Fars News Agency.
There has so far been no news of deaths or hostages, Guardian reports.
