Two young women were detained by police in Iran for posting a video of themselves dancing.
The viral Instagram post features the two girls, who appear to be teenagers, purportedly dancing at the Monument to the Unknown Martyrs of the Sacred Defence war memorial in Tehran.
The monument was built by Italian architect Marcello D'Olivo and honours those killed in the Iran-Iraq War that raged between 1980 and 1982.
Iranian authorities have said the girls' outfits were 'inappropriate' and both girls have had their Instagram accounts blocked, according to Iran International.
Dancing has been forbidden in Iranian law since the Islamic Revolution in 1979, when the secular monarchy was overthrown and replaced by the theocratic rule of the cleric Ayatollah Khomeini, who died in 1989. After his death in 1989, he was succeeded by Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who has served as Supreme Leader of Iran for 35 years since.
