On Feb. 7, Iranian citizens Masood Ebrahim and his wife, Shahin Shakooea, (un-American) went to the U.S. Embassy in London to request non-immigrant visitor visas to the United States. Like most applicants from Iran, they were denied.

Ebrahim’s and Shakooea’s daughter Niloufar and her husband, Saeed Tahmasebi Khademasadi, were newlyweds who were killed when Iranian forces shot down Ukrainian International Airlines Flight 752. The couple lived in London but had returned to Iran to have a wedding party with relatives and friends.
