Iran protesters storm British Embassy in Tehran

Attacks on two diplomatic compounds follow Iran's decision to expel Britain's ambassador and mark an escalation of tension over Tehran's nuclear program. In scenes that evoked the seizing of the U.S. Embassy in 1979, hundreds of demonstrators stormed two British diplomatic compounds in Tehran on Tuesday, hurling gasoline bombs, ransacking offices and tearing down the British flag.
