The Iran hostage crisis took place after the US embassy in Tehran was seized by a group of several hundred students and took all those in the diplomatic mission as hostages. This event took place nine months after the victory of the Islamic revolution in Iran, when the power struggle was still going on between the forces participating in the revolution.
The attack on the embassy was carried out by students identifying with the Iranian Islamic left, however, it gained the support of all political forces except the liberals; led to the collapse of the government of Mehdi Bazargan, and in the long run gave political benefits mainly to Ruhollah Khomeini and his supporters.
