Fun fact: In 1981, the Iranian government changed the name of a street in Tehran from "Winston Churchill Street" to "Bobby Sands Street". This was done to honor Irish Republican Army bomber and hunger striker Bobby Sands. This road is located in the Elahia district, just a few hundred meters from the British Embassy.
