In the midst of global demonstrations, a small group of angry protesters in Tehran attacked the Saudi embassy, prompting several arrests by Iranian authorities.
In response, Saudi Arabia cut its ties with the Islamic Republic. Several Saudi satellite states, including Bahrain and the UAE, followed a similar approach.
