Iran's Foreign Ministry has called for calm after police dispersed angry protesters who had stormed Saudi Arabia's embassy in Tehran.
Demonstrators broke into the embassy and started fires before being cleared away by the police, Iran's ISNA news agency reported, after gathering there to denounce the kingdom for executing a prominent Shi'ite cleric on Saturday.
The ministry issued a statement early on Sunday calling on protesters to respect the diplomatic premises, according to the Entekhab news website.
