At least five police officers were seriously injured and 12 people arrested after a “violent disorder” broke out near the Iranian embassy in London on Sunday, the Metropolitan Police said.

Dozens of demonstrators gathered at the embassy on Sunday afternoon, as protests spread across the world following the death of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini.
