Iran's opposition groups have called for demonstrations on Thursday to mark the 10th anniversary of a violent student uprising that rocked the Islamic Republic in 1999.
The protests then, triggered by the closure of a pro-reform paper, lasted several days and resulted in four deaths.
Al Jazeera's Dorsa Jabbari reports on the significance of this 10 year anniversary.
