Thousands of Iranians chanted slogans near the French embassy in Tehran to protest the latest edition of Charlie Hebdo, which caricatured Prophet Muhammad on its cover.

Security forces sealed off Neauphle-le-Château street leading to the mission, forcing the demonstrators, many of them women dressed in the head-to-toe chador cloak, to gather about 10 meters from the building.
