The Iranian rebels who captured the U.S. embassy in Tehran in November 1979 were primarily led by a group of students associated with the Muslim Student Followers of the Imam's Line. Key figures included individuals like Mohsen Makhmalbaf and other student leaders who were inspired by the Iranian Revolution and sought to protest against U.S. support for the ousted Shah. The takeover lasted 444 days and became a significant event in U.S.-Iran relations.
