Iranians mark 42nd anniversary of Islamic Revolution

The authorities had banned people from swarming to the streets due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The vehicles were decorated with the slogans supporting the Islamic Revolution.

In the capital Tehran, the country's Islamic Revolution Guards Corps displayed the ballistic missiles at the Azadi (liberty) Square.

In different cities, motorists followed the capital's example to commemorate the anniversary of revolution victory.
