Kudeta Iran 1953

Kudeta Iran 1953, yang dikenal di Iran sebagai kudeta 28 Mordad (), adalah pelengseran Perdana Menteri Mohammad Mosaddegh dalam rangka memperkuat kekuasaan monarki Mohammad Reza Pahlavi pada 19 Agustus 1953, yang disertai oleh Britania Raya (dengan nama "Operasi Boot") dan Amerika Serikat (dengan nama Proyek TPAJAX).
