London, United Kingdom – Video filmed by @OurFightUk shows a celebratory rally of Iranian exiles and supporters gathered outside Downing Street on March 1, 2026, marking the death of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in coordinated U.S. and Israeli strikes earlier that day.

The footage opens with Eve Kay, a speaker for @OurFightUk, addressing the crowd from a makeshift podium. Speaking firmly, she declares, “We are celebrating the death of the tyrant Khamenei… This is a victory for the people of Iran.” Behind her, demonstrators wave pre-1979 Iranian flags bearing the lion and sun emblem, smiling and in tears as they chant, “Thank you, thank you!” in gratitude toward the U.S. and Israel.

As the camera moves across the gathering, applause and cheers intensify. People of different ages hold signs reading “Free Iran” and “End the Dictatorship.” Some form small circles, linking arms and dancing in celebration.

With Whitehall and nearby government buildings in view, the rally extends into the street beneath gray skies. Voices rise together in calls for democracy and an end to theocratic rule.

The video captures close-ups of emotional faces and flags waving as Eve continues: “The Iranian people have suffered for too long… Now is the time for freedom.” Wider shots reveal a swelling crowd, their chants echoing through the area as the celebration unfolds.
