An example of iconoclasm today is the destruction of the Buddhas of Bamiyan by the Taliban in Afghanistan.
Destruction of usually religious icons, images or monuments for political or religious reasons is called Iconoclasm. Mullah Umar, who was the leader of Taliban at that time, ordered to destroy the Buddhas of Bamiyan in 2001.

The correct answer is Buddhas of Bamiyan. They were mined by the Taliban government because they were declared to be idols and this went against iconoclasm, which was about preventing depiction of religious people as idols. They stated that the statues were getting foreign aid while the people were starving and that it was a travesty.
