A young Iranian woman is jumping over a fire while participating in the annual ''Chahar Shanbeh Soori,'' also known as the fire festival, in northwestern Tehran, Iran, on March 12, 2024. Iranians are celebrating Chahar Shanbeh Soori, the eve of the last Wednesday before the Persian New Year (Nowruz), which is an ancient tradition rooted in Zoroastrianism that signifies the triumph of light over darkness and purification for the coming year.
