People in Iran burned a banner showing an image of Donald Trump after the Republican Party’s disastrous results in the crucial midterm elections.
The banner burning took place during a state-organised rally marking the student takeover of the US embassy in Tehran during the 1979 Islamic revolution.
Iran's government declared that voters had rejected the war launched by the US president even as Tehran remained on high alert for the possibility of renewed strikes.
The Democrats won the House and the Senate in a landslide victory. Mr Trump himself acknowledged that the war with Iran may have contributed to his party’s electoral losses.
