Gathering of "families of members of the People's Mojahedin Organization" in front of the Turkish Embassy in Tehran

The PMOI said one person died, but police denied this. “During the operation, the police caused no casualties and did not use weapons under any circumstances,” the police statement said, adding that it had launched a probe into the PMOI’s allegations. The group also said a dozen of its members were injured during clashes with police. Under a UN and US-backed deal in 2013 that saw them leave Iraq, the PMOI settled in other countries including their unlikely home in Albania, a poor Balkan state in southeast Europe.
