Members of the Iranian community in North London gathered on March 20 to celebrate ‘Nowruz’, the Persian New Year and the beginning of spring.
Despite the festive atmosphere and the traditional activities accompanying the end of winter and the start of the new year, those present felt a sense of concern and sorrow regarding the ongoing war in Iran and its impact on families and the community.
No additional details about the events or official statements from the organizers have been reported, reflecting the community's desire to maintain cultural traditions despite the difficult circumstances.
