The Associated Press reports that thousands of riot police and Revolutionary Guard members armed with tear gas, batons and firearms are deployed outside Tehran University to prevent student demonstrations backed by the opposition:
Monday’s large security operation suggested that authorities plan to make good on their promise to deal harshly with protesters marking the day in 1953 when three students were killed in an anti-U.S. protest.
All of this came from eye-witness reports conveyed to reporters since foreign journalists are banned from covering today’s planned protests.
