In their messages, Sultan of Oman Haitham bin Tariq Al Said, Emir of Kuwait Jaber Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah and Kuwaiti Prince Nawaf Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah congratulated the Iranian President on the occasion of the anniversary of victory of Islamic Revolution.
The Iranian nation toppled the US-backed Pahlavi regime 41 years ago, on February 11, 1979, ending 2,500 years of monarchic rule in the country.
The Islamic Revolution, led by Imam Khomeini, established a new political system based on Islamic values and democracy.
Every year, Iranians mark the anniversary of their Islamic Revolution from February 1 to 11, known as the Ten-Day Fajr (Dawn) ceremonies.
February 1, 1979, was the date when Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini returned from exile in Paris to Tehran.
