Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian has sacked one of his deputies after a holiday to Antarctica sparked public outrage during the country’s New Year celebrations.
Shahram Dabiri, the now-former vice president for parliamentary affairs, was removed from his post after photos emerged online showing him and his wife posing in front of a Dutch expedition vessel bound for the icy continent. The trip coincided with Nowruz, the Persian new year.
