Iran-State Event, Kneel Before Iranians

A veiled Iranian woman holds a portrait of Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, and a country flag as she attends a state event unveiling a sculpture of the Roman emperor Valerian and Shapur I, the Sasanian king of kings (not pictured), in Enghelab (Revolution) Square, in downtown Tehran, Iran, on November 7, 2025, during the Iran-Israel ceasefire. Following the twelve-day war with Israel, the Islamic Republic of Iran draws upon national symbols and elements of ancient Persian heritage in an effort to strengthen a sense of national solidarity and foster public support for the country's policies.
