After protesters who were angered at the execution of a prominent Shiite cleric stormed the Saudi Arabian Embassy in Tehran, setting fire to it, a number of Iranian officials have condemned the attack. Many Iranian media outlets also questioned the motives of the embassy attackers, who have once again caused a diplomatic crisis between Iran and a foreign country.
Iranian officials condemned the execution of Nimr al-Nimr, who had advocated for more rights of Saudi Arabia’s Shiite minorities. However, many were quick to also condemn the attack on the Saudi Embassy.
