Video. Iranian exiles in London protest as elections take place

Updated:

Iranians in London gathered Friday in front of the Iranian consulate and embassy as the country held elections to choose a successor to the late President Ebrahim Raisi, who died in a helicopter crash in May.

Dozens of protesters waved Iranian flags, chanted "women, life, freedom," and booed voters entering the consulate. After record-low turnout in recent elections, voter participation remains uncertain. Despite the Supreme Leader’s ultimate authority, Iran’s president influences the country's approach to the West.
