EDITORS' NOTE: Reuters and other foreign media are subject to Iranian restrictions on leaving the office to report, film or take pictures in Tehran. Women students of the University of Tehran, who are members of Islamic Basij militia, hold a placard during a protest gathering in front of Iran's Foreign Ministry building in Tehran November 23, 2009. Iran's Basij militia protested on Monday against what they said was an Israeli-backed assault by Saudi Arabia on Shi'ite Muslims in Yemen. Saudi Arabia launched its assault on neighbouring Yemen's Shi'ite Muslim rebels -- known as the Houthis -- earlier this month after rebels staged a cross-border incursion that killed two Saudi border guards.
