One of the protesters told IRNA about the gathering that French magazine Charlie Hebdo has repeatedly insulted the sanctities of Muslims, and this gathering was held at the request of Senior Iranian Cleric Ayatollah Hossein Nuri Hamedani in Tehran and Qom.
Large numbers of Iranians gathered in front of France’s embassy in the Iranian capital on Sunday to denounce the recent insulting cartoons published by the French magazine Charlie Hebdo.
People carried placards and banners with messages condemning the sacrilege attempts of the French magazine and chanted slogans in support Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei.
The French satirical weekly magazine of Charlie Hebdo, which once insulted the Holy Prophet to pursue Islamophobia, has recently desecrated the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution of Iran Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei.
The sacrilege has triggered numerous criticism from Iranian figures and entities, including the Ministry of Foreign Affairs which summoned the French ambassador to Tehran to express strong condemnation.
